The seller is auroracustomshop. They sell the necks already finished. They install the nut, graphtech level, crown, dress, and polish the frets. I think they offer decal service as well. The price is stupid cheap and I was surprised how good the feet work and nut work was.
Got it together! I have to say this thing is so badass! It’s going to be super humid for the month so I’ll have to wait on doing the decal. The bare knuckle grungier single coils are actually really good. One of the most balanced single coils I’ve tried. They pair with the WD Forte really...

Please elaborate? Big box pickup makers can’t even replicate the same tones from earlier versions of the same pickup. The wind is the biggest factor. The turns per layer, the pattern and the tension all play a significant role in how the pickup reacts. Anyone says they’d recreated a pickup or...
It’s still got the stock 4700pf bright cap on volume 2. Some people like it for the cut, some don’t. Once I get more parts in I’ll drop it down to 2200pf. I miss living down the road from Mouser electronics.
