Thanks. Yeah, his necks looks nice. I sometimes like the shorter fret scales, and 23" is one I use pretty often. This here cbg is one of the 3 or 4 I am making for my friend, Nurse Sarah, and her US Army Wounded Warriors. Shipping overseas + portability = the small ones are great! I got a deal on a lot of brazilian cherry (jatoba) a while back and it is finding its way into some builds.
Sharp build Max, I did a trade deal with Delta Groove guitars...one of his necks [ my choice of woods- blk. walnut and curly maple ] 23" scale for one of my slide sets. Savin the neck for an upcoming plank build.
