hiram.k.hackenbacker Posted August 23, 2021 Author Share Posted August 23, 2021 Just had an update from Jon. Things have progressed well since the last photo update. He’s going to send me some more images tomorrow. The neck is complete and the body has a little work to be done on the finish, but we’re almost there 😀. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to keep hassling him as I know he is very busy at the moment. I think I'll probably get the photos, the final invoice and a delivery date all at once! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quatschmacher Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 @hiram.k.hackenbacker, what radius did you go for? I’m just in the process of finalising specs with Jon for a build of my own (still need to sort radius, neck wood, pickup and body/pickguard colour).

I’m just in the process of finalising specs with Jon for a build of my own (still need to sort radius, neck wood, pickup and body/pickguard colour). I didn't discuss the radius with Jon actually and looking back through our conversation, the agreed specs don't mention neck radius. I guess it will be the same as the JJ Burnell Lite Precision. The spec on the Shuker site doesn't mention the radius for that model either. From that, I would assume it's going to be similar JJ's original Fender Precision, whatever that may be?
