Seeing I paid this off last week, I thought it was time to post it. With my heart set on a 24 fret JJ (or possibly PJ), I went to Brooklyn for a sound sample. After a "quick" three hours, my mind was made up. It was a Will Lee all the way!  The specs are to be: Will Lee with flamed maple/swamp ash body finished natural in lacquer Flamed maple fretboard Hum canceling pickups Chrome hardware Tort pickguard PortaBag Light SS Blue Label strings And here's the body:  |

Thanks. I saw that body while at their shop. It looked too good to pass up. I made a few changes after the initial order but I think I'm all set now. It's just the waiting. |

There has been much comment on NYC necks being nitro finish. What about the body paint? Is it also nitro or a type of poly ? I'm not sure I've heard definitive reasoning for the choice of neck & body finish. Thanks.

Blair, body finish is thin poly. You could custom order nitro in the past, but it's not an option anymore. |

Update Picture! Looks great, Timothy. As much as I like natural finish, this burst really enhances this beautiful piece of spalted maple. |

It's funny that it takes roughly the same amount of time to have a baby as it does to have a Sadowsky made.  |

Roger,
Is there by any chance a film of some sort over the top finish of a sprayed body, as a protection perhaps?
Thanks.

Last time I checked, that was called a pickguard! The finish is the film that protects the wood. You want a film to protect the film? Seriously, not sure what you are asking for--- Roger |
