I buttoned down the 5-string, strung-up all of the builds that have accumulated, and took some family photos.

The updated headstock shapes are in, as are the parts for a custom-ordered Jayluxe V-32.

Thank you so much! I'm partnering with Allparts in 2025 to offer a series of 32" scale conversion necks with licensed headstocks. I'm hoping that partnership give the brand a nice boost. :)

I really like the updated headstock shapes.

Thanks, Dave!

I'm shifting my attention to focus on what sells the best, 32" scale conversion necks in non-bottle-opener shapes. I suspect that having a simpler profile for the 2+2, 3+2, and 4+4 will give them a broader appeal.

Fingers crossed! :)

There's no such thing as gravity, the earth just sucks!!

Thank you so much!

As I pivot away from complete builds and towards necks, bridges, and other parts, I'll need to rely more on client photos for updates. Below is the latest conversion neck installation. :)

With the new headstock design, that fits right in, looks like it could have come from the factory that way.

Thanks! That's the vibe I was going for with the redesign, and I think the results speak for themselves. I'm proud of the bottle-opener shapes and the OG logo, but the updated look is so much more accessible/universal. :)
