Dibs! That is so impressive, and a great idea too.

Thanks for the comments guys. I'm glad Reg has some good photographic skills too! The Duesenburg trem and pups are top quality gear.

Its a bit of a mixture. It has a sapele body with a heart rimu top. The neck is a 5-ply laminate using matai with kwila strips, and a thin rimu headstock cover to match the body. Body was fairly light, but the weight started to creep up once all the hardware was attached.
