Well, If Robert OG isn't doing it right now, I don't know, dude, The hard answer might be save up for a warmoth, or save up alittle more for a used Jagstang.

yeah, but i think its extra for custom specifications, i want a jag trem route on it, and a jag upper horn control plate route(which calls for a custom PG) and im pretty sure warmoth would charge more for that, also would a fender mustang neck be easily compatible with a warmoth neck pocket?

that's awesome. it just keeps getting bigger. no matter what you do. just keeps floating until it's so distorted it looks like a plate of eggs. that's really cool.

im sorry i can't make bodies, i mean i can, but i just don't want to.
i don't see the point in charging more than 100 bucks shipped for anything that somewith patience could do at home. and on top of that im sick of hearing stuff like.
"gee, you could have sanded it more"
or
"wtf, my japanese strat neck is too big for the jazzy body you made"

for number one, most people paid about 30-50 bucks for a body from me, you can surfly afford sand paper.
number two. a strat neck and a jazzy neck are slightly different, not enough to kill a cat with, but enough to stop you in your tracks for a few days.
plus all the bullshit with noho really cealed the deal.
but alot of the bodies that i made for people turned out really really really good.
the one that sticks out in my mind is the jazzy for cowbell.
the strat for dgner8 was nice, altho more communication between me and noho would have done wonders.
the j.s. i made for icey came out really cool looking.
oh, and both of the guitars for mickie came out awsome, my favorite was the bronco jr. it was alot of fun to do, and it turned out great.

I THOUGHT I TOLD YOU, AFTER THE BANDSAW, AND DRILL PRESS INCIDENT, NO MORE COMMUNICATING WITH THE OUTSIDE WORLD!
srsly tho, sorry i had to cancel on you today, tracy had a job interview in jasper, which meant i was the driver.
if you are free on thursday that would be awsome, i got a few cool vintage acoustics in the shop right now, and im picking up a tele and possibly a lead 3 tomorrow.

This website;
http://www.mercasystems.com/index.php/bodies-necks?p=3
used to list jagstang in it's custom guitar bodies section.
They look a bit like allparts stuff.
