Phil,
Here’s the kit I built for my friends son, Nick. He’s 14 and plays for Rex-O-Flex. This was a great quality kit and I am looking forward to building more. Thanks for the great customer service and fantastic quality.

Hey Phil,
Finally have some decent pics of the X that my son Daniel and I put together. Great learning experience for our first time building a guitar. Daniel loves playing it.
The quality of the kit is amazing right out of the box; fret work is great. I glued the neck on the body after I finish sanded it up to about 800 grit. I did not grain fill and did several, probably about 10 very light coats of Tru Oil….wipe on then wipe off.
Humbuckers are Golden Age with a paper in oil 0.022 Cap. I did drill one hole so that I could thread a soldered ground wire from the bottom of the bridge post and pull it through to ground on the back of one of the pots.
I had the pic gaurd made specifically for this guitar by www.pickgardian.com (I sent them a paper template).
Great product which makes Great guitar!!
Best,

Hans Hartung Baby….
Hi Phil,
finally I managed to tak some better photos of my beloved Junior DC. Feel free to use them on your page:
I love it! It plays so well and sounds just great! By the way … it’s pretty beautiful, too! My final specs: black limba body + neck, ebony fretboard without markers, ebony headstock veneer, Gibson P90 dog ear, Rockinger Harmony wrap around bridge (made from aluminium), bone nut, Kluson tuners. The headstock shows my great-grandfather’s signature (“Hartung”). Body and neck received just 3 coats of Tru Oil – so I kept the pure wooden feeling.
This “Hans Hartung Junior DC” (as I call it) delivers just that sound I want from a Junior type guitar – raw and pure, dynamic and clear! Thank you for your outstanding work! Maybe I will return to you for another kit some day … 🙂
Best regards
Norman
