To mwaldorf: The Moles' guitar is typical of the small profile slim super fast, small low
profile frets. If your not aware or have not played this type of neck, most players say
I can't play this thing. Or they get blown away with the radi of the fretboard. Even the early
Pglass radi boards like I first saw in the mid-50's like on the Stan Welsh single neck Hollow Body with a Tele style body were very fast unforgiving necks. The Carvin pickups were a sound I always liked. That's the coil spec, Semie used on my Big Double-neck.

I love this stuff. What Deke, Eddie, Terry and now Elaine bring to this forum, is what this forum is all about, to me. Thank you folks, for this insight into such a great guitar.

Elaine,
I may be one of the few who really like the small profile neck with super low frets. I love the neck on my '66 Ventures model and all of the other Ventures models I've played. Since starting to play Mosrites, the necks on my Fenders feel clunky by comparison.
