ExNihilo DC Jr. Style Stripped $500!

ExNihilo · 10-08-2010, 12:33 PM

For sale is my DC Jr. style guitar -stripped (i.e. no hardware/electronics/pick ups etc.) It is a wonderful guitar.

$500 with hard shell case. This is an EXTREMELY good deal.

You can read all about the guitar at my build thread here:

A DC-Jr-Special-Style Guitar

There are two reasons why I am selling this guitar:

1. The neck 2mm too wide (not thick). When I cut the board I wasn't planning on binding. Then I decided to put binding on and forgot to trim down the board. At the nut the fret board is 45.45 mm and at the end of the board (by the pick ups) it is 59.57 mm.

It should be noted that it would be an easy fix to take the binding off and sand the neck, however, there is a more important reason for me selling it.... which might sound kind of silly to many of you:

2. As a player that exclusively plays sitting down, I find that the "waist" curve is a tiny bit too forward. It's too bad because the guitar looks super cool, and its great standing up, but I always play sitting down.

So, I am hoping to get some more wood and build something different.

Sincerely, Scott

Wow, cool design... and that seems like an excellent price.

I wonder if this could be converted to a 7 string with the wide board? Cool guitar!

Somebody got a really good deal. I was at Scott's house when that board was just a blank. He tone tapped it and it rang like a bell.

Hey man, what happened to the other videos of you building your les paul on youtube? I'm really anxious to see them.

That was an outstanding deal for a great build.
