Here's another cool thing Jeff just pulled off...
"Hmm...I wanna use this wizard neck for my Kamikaze replica...but it's got that god-awful Ibenhad headstock, and needs the ESP reverse banana...what to do...?"
Next time I see a suitable Musikraft Charvel Strat body going cheap on Ebay, I am SO having him do a Fair Warning for me...we were emailing about it today, actually...already have a Floyd for it...lol
Come to think of it, should my local buddy be too busy, judging from these pics I could send him the Warmoth paddlehead neck for the Explorer headstock I need for my Kramer build...Originally posted by conmee

I'll give you that nit-pick - he probably re-used the same tuners off the neck...Originally posted by conmee

For sure! If I was gonna upside-down reuse these old Gotohs- which are my fave tuner key- I would have shifted the keys south another 1/4" - 3/8" for better left-hand access.
But I like it - it looks alright. I'm fine with headstock mods, and have a few myself.
Keep in mind, the original 57-59 Gibson Explorer's headstocks were modded and none of those gluejoints have been documented to fail so I think this mod job will last a lifetime.
He even took the time to groove the underside of the headstock to form sort of a rabbeted edge to piece a glueable edge. I think this guy's woodwork is as good as his paint because he considered how to create a strong bond beforehand.. some guys would have done differently.
If I were to do it, I would have used a 4" oscillating spindle sander to make a radius there instead, then cut a 4" semicircled edge and just epoxied that in. But this was just as good I think, a little labored but its fine.Comment

Thanks for pointing that out!
Yeah, now that you mention it, there's only two wraps on the low 'E'...

Fan Tastic!!!!!!!!!!
I just emailed this to the guys in my KISS tribute. They love the guitar. Great Job.
I had an 80's Gibson Explorer that had the real bad pin stripes paint job and stuck as many KISS stickers on it as I could kind. People loved that guitar and as usual I wish I had that guitar back.
The detail on this guitar is excellent. From the flames to the boots. Excellent work!!!!!!A NATION OF COWARDS - Jeffrey R. SnyderComment
