| The neck is great. It's a little thicker and rounder than I prefer, but it's not really 'thick' (I like 'em thin). It is VERY smooth, he did a great job on the satin finish. The body is alder and the finish is very nice.
Oh, and I should mention that the pickguard is being held on by only 2 screws because that's all I had. The dude before me had removed this pickguard (which was originally white) and used it as a template to make a replacement pickguard out of an old Neil Diamond record (not kidding). When I got it the new 'pickguard' was held on with blue masking tape (which left NO residue), and the original pickguard was a tiny bit chewed up around the pickup hole and had some red marker on it from the process. I painted it flat black and it looks VERY cool now, as you can see, but I only had 2 spare pickguard screws lying around.
