Come on guys.....if you really must dismantle a perfectly good D10 into an SD10, at least PLUG THE HOLE in the changer end plate. It seems that might be a good business to be in now days.....making nice neat changer
"Hole Covers". 
Maybe there is already???

I like too also plug the end plate hole. I was commissioned too make this MSA DOUBLE
12 into a Sd12. An to plug the changer hole I use maple wood the thickness of the deck
I make a pattern then sand an glue too fit snugly in the changer hole.

| Emmons used the same end plates for both single and double necks without plugging the open space, did not appear to deter people from playing them. |

Johnie, nice machining work on covering the hole, great fit, like the idea too of inserting maple into the top deck changer empty space but what about that pad? I like it too but what kind of critter did you skin?  |

| Jerry it looks like Johnie may have killed and used the hyde of the rare, almost extinct Naugah's. I'm afraid the "Naugah Lives Matter" may find this unacceptable! |

Neil, I agree but there are some on here that think they have to make an SD-10 out of every D-10. I've seen many classic guitars destroyed on here only to have the spare parts end up some illegitimate ax. The people doing it think they are providing a service. To me it's like putting an outhouse in an elevator, there is just no point. |

I dunno-this is weird to me.
Muscle cars of the 60's & 70's are sweet but sometimes they were made as four doors and you're not caught dead driving that.
Would you cut and weld one to make it a two door? A C6 neck makes a perfectly good arm rest. |

Hey...just learn a little C6th....you might find you really like it!!!! It definitely has a sweet sound of it's own, and the lows that come from strings 9 & 10 just CAN NOT be replicated!!!
Also...What Kevin & Craig & Lee said!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

| I agree with Lee. I hate to see these vintage guitars mutilated. It's like throwing half the guitar away. |
