Good story on that neck!

Thank you Uncle John, there's a funny story of how that one on the left came about. I was attempting to install the delta pickup and while I was cutting the notch the neck broke when one of my spring clamps popped off. So since I had promised my friend in Oklahoma I'd have em sent from Ohio to him by this weekend I didn't have time to order another neck from Gitty so I used a little engineering and made it into a bolt on, filled the back notch with the tail piece flush and added the hinge which is kinda hidden by my grass lol. Then son of a gun if the part of the pickup where the poles and wires came out broke off cause I didn't have the hole cut quite big enough so that ended up being a sound hole and it got a disk pickup slapped inside. The Eagle one also has a disk pickup just because that graphic is too beautiful to cut out any more than I did for the sound holes. The one on the right has the 4 band EQ pizeo rod pickup wedged between the neck and the lid a la Shane Speal video lesson.
