Default Fylde Fan Fret

New baby.

Slightly deeper than standard body
Variable scale length - 25.25" on the top, 26.25" on the bottom
Florentine cutaway
Forearm bevel
Cocobolo + Spruce body
Sandwich maple, rosewood, mahogany neck.
Unmarked (ebony) fretboard
Chunky (think 59 Les Paul) neck shape - my thumb never goes over the top, so the profile is much more rounded than "V" Roger normally makes...
LR Baggs Anthem installed.

Glad it's arrived Ben - looks lovely, and will no doubt sound superb when you play it.

PM'd you.

Very nice, fan frets still make my brain hurt a little bit when I look at them though!

Zombie thread alert...well, it is Halloween. I had the pleasure of seeing you playing the Flyde last night during the Imagine Arts Festival in Waterford, and a swift google lead me here. Wonderful playing, and a fantastic sound that the PA guys did a great job of reproducing. Thanks to Josienne and yourself, come back soon.
