Bud LeCompte has announced a sweet new design, the Transverse Rex:



  • Licensed Novax Fanned-Fret® System
  • 33"-36" Scale
  • 24 Fret, Bolt-on Neck
  • ABM Single Saddle Bridge Rails, 18mm Spacing
  • Bartolini G66CBJD Pickups
  • Passive Wiring
  • Dual Action Truss Rod
  • Polyester Finish
  • Dunlop Straplocks
  • Starting at $2100


Although not my stylistic cup of tea, his stuff has always been highly regarded and sensibly priced. A nice Afterburner II alternative.

Nice price. Ditch the coffee table, and we can start talking.

Still waiting for Dingwall to do the 5 string Jazz style...

Dang, for 2100, that is a steal. I don't mind the "space-age" design so much. I wonder if he does them in a five?
