OK - my bad for downloading these wrong. Here's the info:
10th home-built design. 25.00" scale. Red oak neck with a 3/8" thick pine fretboard (which won't happen again!), piezo pickup. Sort of a throwback Rickenbacker sound hole, with that design also carried over to the bridge. Bone nut. The inner peek into the sound hole shows "Mrs. Ples", the popular nickname for the most complete skull of an Australopithecus africanus specimen ever found in South Africa. This gitty is destined to go to my son's girlfriend, who researches that sort of stuff and loves Mrs. Ples! Who says you can learn things visiting a CBG site!? ;-)
