Build in progress.
Will look good on my little old chair in the foyer.
Better strapped on, tuned up and plugged in.

No secret. Tom Bartlett: http://bartlettguitarparts.com/blogs/bartlett-retrospec
It was until you revealed it. :ganz
Was there a reason for hiding it? :hmm
None at all.
Just a little theatrics with my non-relevatory post.
Picked the top from a bunch that Tom had matched. Measured the neck dimensions on 8 of my 1950s Gibsons, along with a couple of newer instruments that I favor from a neck feel perspective, and passed them on with an average that meets the bill. Now waiting on the build.
Have not selected pick ups. Tom favors Sheptones. Also uses Throbaks and OX4s.
My JG BM Semi has Throbaks, so leaning to one of the new makers that I don't have.
