Some one tell me to "just relax, Jake"

the body arrived!

They will start production soon.

It's a Jazzmaster: Sherwood Green "closet clean", matte finish; Tort guard; witch hats.

Matching headstock (they use their own head stock shape...which is a cross between the strat and tele shapes); blocks, no binding.

They use Porter pick ups (vintage wound Jms)

Exciting!

Since yours has a matching headstock, we will need to get the neck here so they can be sprayed together though. J

So...

They do not have the neck yet. It isn't going to be here any time soon, either. I sent an email saying enough is enough...and we decided to go with one they had in stock. he one

The one I had ordered had blocks (which I wanted) but had their head stock (which I didn't really want). The neck they had in stock has dots (which are fine) but has a Fender style head stock (which I want).

The body is prepped and now they will prep the neck...and they will spray soon.

If it makes you feel better, I'm 3.5 years into waiting on a build for a guitar I paid in full for.

It's better if you don't ask.

A headstock with a cross between a tele and a strat...Creston?

so, the guitar is moving along nicely.

The body is sprayed and almost ready to buff. The neck is sprayed and tuners put on...I'll up load some pics later tonight.

But...!

I ordered an Ooni Koda 16 pizza oven on May 2nd. First they changed the availability to the end of June...I just got an email and it won't be here until the middle of July at the earliest. My kids will be back at college by the time it gets here (they are starting early).

It's a conspiracy, I tells' ya
