looks sweet! so you built the body and neck from the ground up? Nice work.
Yes, a total scratch build made exactly like the original bodies with the exception of a bookmatched solid wood top instead of veneered plywood and the neck is all one piece of wood.
Very cool
Did you do the fretboard from scratch?
And did you put a trus rod in the neck?
For this one I used an original Harmony fretboard. I make my own truss rods that are exactly like the original single action except i make them out of stainless steel rod.
