Halo Guitars completed the basic neck builds, consisting of fretboard attachment, fret slotting and inlay. They are at the Luthier's home workshop now.

I'm excited!

Verena, my Duo partner, tries to convince me of a double neck bass - 4 and 6 string shortscale.
OP
This is being built with 450 series CTS Premium 500k split shaft potentiometers. They have a 24 spline - NOT METRIC - splines. I need to find the correct witch hats for it.
Tolerance = +/- 9%
Can Size = 23.8mm (15/16 in.) radius X 9.5mm (3/8 in.) height
Bushing Threads = 3/8-32
Bushing Height = 9.5mm (3/8 in).
Shaft Type - split
Shaft Diameter = 9.5mm (please ensure that the pickguard / control plate that the pot is mounting onto has a 9.6mm diameter hole)
Spline Count = 24 (NOT metric)
Length of threaded shaft - 9.5mm (3/8 in.)
Value = 550K Ohms

You know, I've never liked locking tuners. I did put them on a lot of my Von Herndon guitars because people like them and asked for them.
I prefer Gibson Green Keys myself...especially when you have 18 of them hanging out on the end of the neck...

OP
In the interest of strength, the Gibson-style rout and truss rod were omitted in favor of a stronger, more conventional allen head truss rod.
Along with a continuous 1" thickness from the 12th fret to the first fret, large volutes and less absent wood in the truss rod cavity, I'm expecting much greater sustain....

Jamie Unden did the sketch....He's done all the Von Herndon design drawings.

Here you can see how much bigger the 12 string paddle is compared to the six string paddle....
