Very nice. It breezes archtop with the modern twist of the Iceman-shape.

It's coming along nicely.

In general, I'm not too fond of the shape, but it's kinda of growing on me. And the finish looks lovely :D

Haven't I seen that neck before?  It looks great, the headstock looks fine with the body.

yeah - it used to be on the HSS guitar hidden behind my TV, just re-veneered the headstock to match this guitar a bit better

I always liked that guitar and the neck was really nice, I know you didn't feel it was up to standard though.  However on this I'm sure the neck will get a lot more playing.
