Status Graphite Replacement Necks    

First prototypes

Here are pics of the first prototype Steinberger replacement necks from Status Graphite.   There are still some details and design aspects to be tweaked but wanted to share a few shots with everyone.

One detail that didn't show up in the pics is the fret & fretboard side finishing.  The fretboard & frets are cut a little short, and the lacquer coat sprayed heavier here.  This gives a very cool effect of the neck transitioning form the 3D translucent weave to a solid black color on the sides.  This also hides both the fretboard separation and any appearance of the fret tangs.  This actually continues up the side of the fret for a very clean look.  Top notch work.
