Hi guys,
I realize this is both ridiculous, and would probably be very expensive for little to no benefit, but would there be any downsides to adding a large piece of wood to a guitar? I've been looking for a cheap(ish) hard tail explorer type guitar, with the same shape as a gibson one (aside from a kelly none of the other variants do it for me) but with a slimmer neck profile/jumbo frets, etc. The best alternative i found was actually a kramer imperial but those are proving to be incredibly hard to find in a TOM version.
Anyway, a thought occurred to me. The Charvel star is basically just an explorer with a triangle chunk cut out of the bottom, could that chunk be feasibly re-added? I know it would add a huge cost for the wood and repainting and is borderline heretical. But could it be done?
