The past 6 months I and spouse have taken-on a lifelong dream of restoring an old Victorian home. Needless to say, as I am the primary carpenter, plumber, electrician, laborer, sh*t shoveler, etc, I have had to put guitar projects on back burner...
But I have managed to get this one almost done...Its a NRP neck purchased from the factory a few years ago, mated with a cheap body purchased on ebay. Still needs tweaking.
Tone is acceptable...a bit busy sounding hopefully will mellow. If i recall correctly, the Regal body with busted neck was a great find at $100 on eBay. I think I paid 250 or so for neck, tuners and tailpiece about 70 each, so a pretty good deal. Have it tuned to standard D at present.
