2021.11.15: This looks like a pretty old order that has been on the market for quite some time.
The only parts that remained from the time of the gallery listing were the bridge, toggle switch, front PU, and smooth taper volume capacitor.
I was told that the neck was also rosewood, but the original maho neck was modified with white LED position marks on the fingerboard and repainted in a rosewood-like color with poor workmanship and the logo was also erased.
Various holes were added from the original 1Vol only.
2021.11.18: Two holes were extended to make the layout easier to play and to make use of all the holes.
The knob between Vol and Tone can be used to adjust the amount of light.
I chose DiMarzio for the PU and the bridge is the most bulky GOTOH that can be attached to the bridge.
2021.12.7: I had the neck repainted with oil finish and the nut re-made at the workshop.
The LED process seems to have been done by opening a groove from the end of the fingerboard and then filling it with putty, so I may have used a rose coloring to cover up the color difference that stood out there.
The paint was so bad at that time that the paint might not be compatible with the finish, so we decided to use an oil finish, which we do not usually use.
The color is a brighter reddish color than when I got it, and I am satisfied with the smooth and comfortable grip as it was when it was completed.
The LED shines so strongly that it becomes an eye blurring effect when shining to the maximum because it is photographed shining to the extent that the image is not disturbed.
I changed the LED on/off switch to a 6-pin push switch with a short stroke, and made it a kill switch that cuts off the PU output and power supply to the LEDs only while it is pressed.
2024.3: I put the bridge and PU back together and sold it since I hardly used it after completion.
I also decided that I prefer a maple neck on a strat type guitar.
