24 to 21-fret conversion

Post by sloop_john_b »

PW or whoever, this one may be silly, i'm not sure.

I prefer the classic look of 21 fret Ricks to the modern 24. Is it possible to turn a 24 fret 330 or 360 into a 21 fretter?

Although I share your sympathies in this matter, and it is possible, it's not something I could easily accomplish myself.

Dale surprised me last time with his 6-to-12-string conversion. Maybe he's got something on this one as well...

Paul: Seems like it wouldn't be that hard to yank a few frets off the guy's fingerboard...

I would add a Brokeback Mountain joke here but it would be not that funny ...
