I emailed you the other day with an initial thought , but after some consternation, I have a better idea. I am having a Baritone Acoustic guitar built out of Macassar Ebony and Adirondack Spruce. I believe I would like to have an electric baritone, as well. Using your "Spectrum" body and book matched Macassar Ebony. Could we speak about other appointments? scott mike1762 Senior Member Username: mike1762 Post Number: 838 Registered: 1-2008 Posted on Sunday, May 15, 2011 - 10:50 am:    Post your idea at: "Dreaming... for now". Mica checks-in from time-to-time there. redcloud Junior Username: redcloud Post Number: 13 Registered: 5-2011 Posted on Sunday, May 15, 2011 - 11:30 am:    Sorry, I don't know how to move it. Perhaps, a moderator will move it. redcloud Junior Username: redcloud Post Number: 14 Registered: 5-2011 Posted on Monday, May 16, 2011 - 8:51 am:    So Mica: Fretboard: Ebony Body: Book-matched Macassar Ebony front and back with wood inserts/access panels. How would the body laminations consisting of Ebony/ Alder/Myrtle/Alder/ Ebony work and look? Neck: 7 piece-Myrtle/Ebony/Alder/Ebony/Alder/Ebony/Myrtle Pups: (3) STR with individual switches instead of a 5 way switch LEDs: Amber Considering wood sample #3132 or #3128. Awaiting feedback.

Better than get upset in your hurry, doesn't it? redcloud Junior Username: redcloud Post Number: 15 Registered: 5-2011 Posted on Monday, May 16, 2011 - 4:30 pm:    Oh, and I need a 1.75 nut width. redcloud Junior Username: redcloud Post Number: 16 Registered: 5-2011 Posted on Thursday, May 26, 2011 - 5:58 pm:    Well, I was told that They would begin building the neck this week. I have placed the deposit. So the wait begins for my "Spectrum" baritone in Macassar Ebony with a Myrtle core and using 1/8" Birch laminations in the "Hippie sandwich". The neck will be a 7 piece using Mahogony, Ebony, Birch, and Walnut. It will have a 1.75" nut and will measure 2.25" at the 24th fret. davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 10207 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Wednesday, June 01, 2011 - 1:28 pm:    This sounds like a great guitar; congrats!!
