Thinking about putting a guitar together and I'm interested in using a dinky style body. Warmoth and Musikraft do not offer dinky style bodies, but I found this company on the Internet, KnE (www.kneguitars.com) who do offer dinky style guitar replacement bodies. Prices seem good, so before I place an order with them, I'd like to find if anyone has had any experience buying from them.
 
PM member dstroud...he's done a few and digs em.
 
I've got a build in progress with a dinky body and its a quality piece.
 
I bought a San Dimas style body from them. I'd rate it "excellent" in all areas. Great attention to detail, excellent fit, very accurate dimensions and a choice piece of wood to boot. I put a Charvel neck on it and it fit perfectly...snug enough for great coupling but not so tight as to have to fight to get it in.
 
My Mick Mars mirrorcaster is his GGG body (Which seeing that GGG made me go out and make it actually) and not only is the guitar body great but Mitch's customer service is outstanding. He sent me the normal model because I didn't specify I wasn't making a normal Girls Kramer tele but the mirror so he told me to send the guitar back and he'd get me one with no bevels to fit the mirror

The snakeskin partscaster I picked up I was told was KnE as well and it's solid stuff man, no complaints

have heard nothing but great things about this company
a LOT of the EVH fans buy his parts for their frankenstein and kramer 5150 clones
 
Mitch is a great guy, iv built 2 guitars already, one being a frankenstrat the other the 5150. Great place
 
i have a 5150 body he did for me. completely happy with it.

I've bought 4 or 5 bodies from them. Mitch is awesome and I've been real happy with all of them. I usually have him provide and install the Floyd studs as well - very reasonable pricing for all that he does.
 
I've put together 3 guitars from Kne, one is the guitar in my avatar pic. Great details and finish and you could just bolt on the neck and go. Mitch is great to deal with.
