Just finished this build for one of my customers (virtuoso shredder). I’m adding fall away to the frets. This is a 20’’ radius fingerboard. Before fretting,…. fallaway Is added to the fingerboard. After installing the frets, a like to add a little fall away to the to the frets as well.

This makes for lowest possible action without string rattle. I like an unplugged electric guitar (when strumming cords) to sound like an acoustic guitar. ..clean, very resonate and have great vibration without string rattle.

For my shredders…… a young Rusty Cooley..

I received numerous emails inquiring what body I'm going to use for my custom build….Ok, here's a first look at the body.

The body is sitting on my drill press. The white glare is a reflection of my drill press light.

Just finished drilling the holes for the controls and bridge mounting studs. The studs have been pressed in.

Getting ready to drill the threaded inserts for the direct mount pickups.
