I would think it would happen eventually. I'm hoping eventually would be sooner rather than later of course. Don't think i can bring myself to go to 10 strings. |

If people think the profile is too thin, Wood inlays on the back similar to this might be cool:

I have two half fretless Sticks and the bass sides are covered with, I believe, stainless steel but might be aluminum. Anyway, tapping the string against metal gives an incredible warm yet articulate sound. This should be a cool offering SA |

It would be my guess that the headstock will be bolt on, not one piece, thus allowing Emmett to use a thinner stock of aluminum blank. kev |

Yep, I had one. Incredibly heavy but amazing sound and sustain. You could go have a coffee while that low E was ringing.

That would be a cool custom option: glued wooden stripes to give a more "traditional" neck profile. I guess the wood should be a light and flexible variant, so that truss rod adjustments didn't pop it off the neck... |

I was rather expecting this kind of profile, like wings for flying fingers.
