Good question, I would love a Florintine cut away Byrdland but I'll be damned if I am going to pay Gibson prices for one.Any Luthiers that make a Byrdland style guitar?. Preferably with a thicker neck.
Very nice. Anymore details?You mean like this? This one is 24.75" scale.

That one has flame maple body, 17" lower bout, 2" deep, 22 fret neck. We put a couple of '57 types in it, along with a coil split switch. Bound body, neck, headstock.Very nice. Anymore details?
Agreed.With all due respect, 24.75" scale is not a Byrdland. The short scale is what makes a Byrdland unique.
True. Can anyone tell me how thin the neck is on a real Byrdland? Super skinny necks don't do it for me.With all due respect, 24.75" scale is not a Byrdland. The short scale is what makes a Byrdland unique.
I've never played a Byrdland that wasn't super skinny......True. Can anyone tell me how thin the neck is on a real Byrdland? Super skinny necks don't do it for me.
