If so are there pictorial representations? My lust for "just one more" has been getting to me again lately. briant Advanced Member Username: briant Post Number: 299 Registered: 12-2004 Posted on Friday, April 10, 2009 - 5:06 pm:    Something like this maybe? tbrannon Senior Member Username: tbrannon Post Number: 1016 Registered: 11-2004 Posted on Friday, April 10, 2009 - 5:15 pm:    Schwing!! briant Advanced Member Username: briant Post Number: 300 Registered: 12-2004 Posted on Friday, April 10, 2009 - 5:22 pm:    Something along these lines: briant Advanced Member Username: briant Post Number: 301 Registered: 12-2004 Posted on Friday, April 10, 2009 - 5:26 pm:    Damn... tried to cancel that first one as I color corrected the fretboard a little. Oh well. bsee Senior Member Username: bsee Post Number: 2269 Registered: 3-2004 Posted on Friday, April 10, 2009 - 9:14 pm:    Headstock might be a bit long and fragile, so one might consider a 4+1 tuner config. The in-line five does maintain the claw better, though. -bob briant Advanced Member Username: briant Post Number: 319 Registered: 12-2004 Posted on Saturday, April 18, 2009 - 12:58 pm:    In Buckeye Burl... jacko Senior Member Username: jacko Post Number: 2190 Registered: 10-2002 Posted on Monday, April 20, 2009 - 4:37 am:    Interesting electronics package. What are you planning? if this was my project, I'd like to see some wood behind the tailpiece. I've sometimes thought about a 5 string dragon wing or possibly an exploiter body shape. Wonder if there's ever been one made. graeme
