The one-piece "Chunky-C" mahogany neck is connected to the body of the '54 Les Paul via a long neck foot and glassy hide-glue.

Custombucker pickups and hand-wired electrics.

The electrical sound transformation of the '54 Les Paul is naturally handled by two Gibson Custom Soapbar P-90 pickups with classic cream-coloured plastic caps.
