The body is maple and the fretboard walnut with maple frets. I used Mark's bridge style from Dynalap. He was very helpful. I also need to thank Tom Pettingill for the electronics and Randy Reeves for help along the way. The maple developed a crack early on and I had to cut it out and add the walnut wedge.

Nice crack recovery, Ron. I like the way that walnut wedge looks. Good job on the guitar.

The shape of the guitar, and peghead work well together. Well done.
