There have been several requests for more information about this. I purchased the body from Locke Custom Guitarworks. It is their EVH 1 body -- heavy northern ash, and routed for a vintage trem. I sent the body to JR Guitarworks for painting. These are the progress photos. The first photo is the body unpainted. Te rest shot it painted with dark wood filler added. Right now it is just waiting for clear coat and polishing. I'm really impressed with everything so far. I'm going to slap a one humbucker pick guard on it -- either black or white. I have a neck coming for Locke also.

Nice!! Ya, I wouldn’t paint that body, Looks phenomenal?
How would I order a neck with the EVH Ernie Ball Music Man asymmetric shape?
Do they know this profile at Locke?
