With the demise of Hamer and a (very) few requests, I decided to build a shorty Eighter based on my '60 EBO.
Finally found a usable neck, 1 3/4" wide at the nut. Traced the body and did 2 mockups last week. Then I got distracted by a new amp (Oliver P-500), the return of my rebuilt B-15 head from Steve and some routine doctor stuff. So here 'tis so far::
Single pup
and 2 pup, 1V, 1T, 1 blend ala Hamer at the moment.
That's a 22 fret neck. Don't know how much time I'll be able to devote to this with current build load but I'll be thinking about it. 1 3/4" thick Honduras mahogany body with '63 ThunderBucker(s) is the plan. The scale is real short, 28.5 inches...just to make it more interesting.
