I just placed a new Rocketfire order with Nick. I figured that I had to tell someone because I was just too excited. I should have the guitar in about four months. I will post a video review of the guitar on my site and post picts on TGP when it comes in. These are the specs that I sent him: Neck: Dark Rosewood fingerboard on a Maple Neck with a AA Flame Neck Profile: Soft V Frets: 6105 Radius: 10" Scale Length: 25.5" Number of Frets: 21 Inlays: Pearloid Dot Body Wood: Lightweight Alder Color: 3 Tone Sunburst Relic Style/Amount: Very Light Relic Pickguard Color: 3 Ply Aged Mint Pickguard Finish: Nitrocellulose Guitar Weight: about 7.5 lbs. Please, nothing heavier than 8 lbs. and nothing lighter than 7 lbs. Pickups: Rocketfire 60s Handwound Toggle Switch: 5-Way Controls: Volume, Tone, Tone Wiring for tone controls / toggle switch: Neck Position Pickup: Tone Control 1 Neck and Middle Pickups: Tone Controls 1 and 2 Middle Position Pickup: Tone Control 2 Middle and Bridge Pickups: Tone Control 2 Bridge Position Pickup: Tone Control 2 Tuners: Vintage Style Nut: Bone Nut Width: 1.650" Tremolo: American Vintage Synchronized Number of Springs Installed: 5 Strings: 10 Gauge D'Addarios String Height: Low to Medium
I'm sure there's a way to wire all 3 pickups for tone control... Haven't heard of many that do though? Usually the regular neck and middle, or neck and bridge, but not all three? Congrats Free!!! Can't wait to hear what you think!!! Shouldn't be too long now.
Love to see it too. I have Nick building me one as well (not a strat guy, but these are so nice I think I might be able to somewhat get on board)
