Does anyone know anything about Southeast Guitars? He makes replica bodies. He has a copy of the Nightswan called the Night Eagle. You can get it in 24 3/4 scale, just like the original, or 25 1/2. I really don't want to try to find an original neck, would rather just go with a Warmoth reverse explorer....but the Warmoth's are 22 fret...any opinions, suggestions? I should probably email Southeast guitars and ask him...but I always ask here first, cuz you guys are sooo smart

I do believe that somone here ordered a 24 fet neck that was 24.75 scale from warmoth that would fit in their standard route...
You will have to email or ring them though, as it's not a listed option...
Also Denny of mojo bodies has made some dam fine bodies...

FYI on the 24 fret neck idea, Warmoth's 24 fretter is a 22 fret neck with a very long overhang, so I would think that would fit the body set up for a 22 fret neck just fine (as long as the fretboard isn't hitting the neck pickup). Musikraft will do "true" 24 fret necks that are cut to fit bodies set up for 24 fret necks.

See, I had read somewhere that Viv's was built from Warmoth stuff, but that they weren't doing them anymore. I didn't realize that Warren built necks...if you don't mind me asking, how much is the replica neck gonna run?I still keep practicing though.... Mostly because I hate my neighbors.-MakeAJazzNoiseHere

Doc, thanks for the kind words. I hope to start putting the Walnut on together this weekend and I've got everything for the Swan body with the exception of the neck and the Floyd. I'll post up a pic of the finished walnut guitar when it's done.
Rev. Timmy.. I know a little about Kramer, but George (AimingHigh) is definitely the Kramer Master. That man has forgotten more than I'll ever know.
