Anybody have or know if the following exists? Mica body Zum with Hybrid changer on E9, and standard changer on C6 and wood necks (wraparound preferred).

Bruce: If you happen to see this and are game, I'd be ready to commission a build per your availability.

Yes Bruce does offer the build option of a guitar with just the Hybrid changer on one neck and a standard changer on the other ...

or both of course

Thanks gents. I already have Hybrid which I adore but will speak to Bruce about the wood neck mica body thing... I've had John Hughey on the brain a lot lately..as we know; he played mica/wood Emmonses early on.

Best to all...JW

I talked to Bruce several years ago asking him to build me a lacquered hybrid with a wooden neck (not a mica guitar), He was fairly dismissive of the concept and discouraged me from the idea. He told me he felt the metal neck (at least in this configuration) sounded much better. Did not ask him about putting a wooden neck on a mica guitar, however.
