What neck radius did you specify? Also, are you asking for a maple or rosewood board?

I hadnt specified neck radius...There is not a charge for the radius so I was going to speak with Dennis the buiilder

Ill either go with 7 1/4 with bigger frets
or a 9 1/2 with the bigger frets

Have you played a vintage radius neck with the larger frets? If not then you may want to see if there's a Mark Knopfler strat at a nearby guitar shop. In my experience the larger frets feel better with a 9.5 radius.

Hmmm. I wonder how much a regular 60's style stock mustang would be... in lefty?

You've got me to thinking.

I didn't think I'd use these sketches for anything other than T-shirt designs. They were black & white originally.

It aint the Dressing Room but it gives you some other options to look at. I still prefer the green!!

That would look great .. no text or anything, just four cartoon Mustangs slapped right in the middle of a T-shirt.

I've done a few others but the disk I stored them on has fucked up. I used to have a Jag & a Jazzmaster. Fortunately the mustang was left on my hard-disk. I've got a Firebird VII drawn out too....somewhere

Maybe tone it down a bit? Do you really need for it to be a thicker body? That's probably where the money is going.
