It covers the slot for the truss rod, so the fretboard face stays one clean piece. Ivory binding runs along both edges of the fretboard, with the side dots set into it. The frets are in and the headstock is drilled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ivory pickguard holds the full rhythm and lead circuit. The slide switch, the 3-way toggle and the rhythm controls are already mounted. You solder in the two P90 pickups. The 24 in (610 mm) scale is shorter than a 25.5 in neck, so the frets sit closer together. There are 21 stainless-steel frets with dot inlays. A six-saddle bridge pairs with a chrome floating vibrato. The tuners are sealed and the hardware is chrome. The mahogany body has no veneer, so it is ready for any stain, paint or clear coat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFull Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch5 style=\"margin-top: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px;
