Members jds22 Posted March 6, 2010 Members Share Posted March 6, 2010 Thinking about ordering a body from KNE. They look good and are priced right, just don't know about the quality. Anybody have any experience with them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members squidly Posted March 6, 2010 Members Share Posted March 6, 2010 I have built 2 guitars with KNE bodys. both of mine were alder, one a hardtail and one with a strat trem cavity. both were very nice bordering on excellent. the neck pocket cavities were spot on, and i encountered no problems at all with either one. they are exactly as he describes them on his website, and if you find his myspace theres plenty of pictures of customers completed guitars as well.

Members lp_junkie Posted March 6, 2010 Members Share Posted March 6, 2010 Good stuff, I like them. I have built a couple of guitars using their GGG bodies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Meowy Posted March 6, 2010 Members Share Posted March 6, 2010 I built one that I have since parted ways with, but I was thoroughly happy with the body I bought which was an alder SanD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jds22 Posted March 6, 2010 Author Members Share Posted March 6, 2010 Cool, thanks. I'm going to order either a Solo or Dinkee in alder, bridge hum with a neck single and a Floyd route. Just not sure how I want to finish it. I've done 3 Carvin kits and just finished them with tung oil. I'd really like to try a candy apple finish but I'd hate to mess it up. Tung oil is pretty much idiot proof which is why I use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members StompBoxLover Posted March 6, 2010 Members Share Posted March 6, 2010 I'll probably get a swamp ash Warren and finish it with oil/wax plus some stain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm leaning towards Warmoth. Hello St. Louis. Yes I am getting the neck from Warmoth. Haven't decided on pups yet. I'm leaning towards a Duncan 59 for the bridge and a duckbucker for the neck.
