This is one that I built. I mainly make them for myself.

I'm going to be taking more pictures here shortly and posting them.

24mm thick at the 1st fret
28mm thick at the 12th fret
I am also willing to take it down a bit (3mm) if the buyer wishes.

59mm wide at the 1st fret
68mm wide at the 12th fret

Here is a quick clip i did on my iRig and iPhone.
(trebble - mid - bass - blend)
Rating is a 1-10 on the controls. I should use the 1-11 scale
1. 8-5-8-both pickups
2. 8-5-8-neck pickup
3. 8-5-8-bridge pickup
4. 5-10-8 bridge pickup
5. 5-10-8-bridge pickup with mids at 800hz instead of 400hz it did a little overdrive on the iRig.
6. 5-5-5-both pickups
7. passive on both pickups

I didn't do anything fancy, but I think it gives an idea of what sound can be played.
