Flame Birch on alder body roasted bird's eye Maple neck. I'm going to send it to Dean zelinski to have his z Glide lasering system done to the back of the neck humbucker single single. It has a strip of Ash down the center to replicate the shaft and the flame Birch is the feathers on an arrow going to be done in dark brown with black hardware

I am assuming you specifically enjoy the way those necks feel? They don't make you play any faster.

nice brotha J!
always wanted to check out that z glide thing!
 
Well I'm definitely not even close to fast with my playing. Just a good feel!
I remember when I was younger and just starting, someone told me Rickenbacker guitars had their frets lined in some way that increased your speed by 20% or some other absolute BS.

I believed it for a short time there.

I'm all about neck feel though...... glide on baby!!!
 
Take a look, the circle in front of the HB is from tear out. Gonna install an Indian head penny!

I looked up the Z glide system because I'd never heard of it before. It looks pretty wild!

That looks amazing except for that patent spot. One suggestion is to just make sure if you are gigging to keep a close eye on your stage during break cause if someone decides to smear feces on your guitar neck it'll be hours of work to get it out of all those little crevices. Maybe keep a fistful of q tips in your guitar case j.i.c.
 
I've had faeces smeared on my gear multiple times inside my own home and I'll tell you this: it doesn't do sh*t for the tone.
