AE Guitars® S-Style Alder Replacement Guitar Body Relic Nitro Top Sunburst

Made from genuine American alder, this relic style body is based off 1962 specs. The paint finish on our relic style bodies is nitro with a thin satin polyurethane seal to protect the alder wood. If you have any questions about our bodies or concerning parts compatibility, please do not hesitate to message us before purchasing. Neck mounting holes, tremolo claw holes (on tremolo bodies), and wiring channels are pre-drilled for easy assembly.

Weight:

While we cannot guarantee you will receive a body with an exact weight, if you message us after placing your order requesting a light or heavy body, we will do our best to select the closest match we can. Please keep in mind that this is a courtesy, and isn't going to be an exact weight match. 

Color:

Our colors are not officially licensed. We select color names based on historical color names and what they most closely resemble. If you're trying to get a 100% color match that may not end up being the case with this body. Color variances may be offset depending on the screen you are viewing these images on. Please keep this in mind when placing your order.

Parts Compatibility:

While our body's specifications are outlined above, as a 3rd party body that is not licensed you must adhere to an industry standard variance of 1-2mm. Guitar manufacturers spent decades creating different specifications for guitars, and not all parts will be compatible due to vintage, modern, and import variances. When you receive your body we strongly recommend doing a "soft'' build without doing any drilling or any modifications to the body.
