2 questions for my next project(s) !!!

Putting this here because I want to make another guitar or two in the near future.
A: I know warmoth sells 28 5/8" baritone necks (because I have one

) for use with 25.5" scale guitars. I'm just curious if anyone knows if the 27.5" bari necks that other companies use would match up to 24.75" scale guitars? I have no idea if you can buy one anywhere, but I want to know.
B: Cheap, interesting body types for guitars. With or without necks. I'm either making two guitars: one with P90s and one with blade humbuckers, or I'm making one guitar with....four pickups....

as far as I know, no. But depending on the guitar you could always moving where the bridge is.
Cheap and interesting... Univox, BC Rich, look up japan guitar on ebay is always fun too.

I like those univox high fliers, but I dunno if I'd want to shred one up. . . .


I'm looking through all the "japan guitars" and I think I'd feel just a tad weird ripping one up that's supposedly rare......

well... then take something normal like a strat and chop at it, dill it full of holes and set it on fire

Yeah, I'm thinking of something like that..... I dunno that my neighbors will appreciate the ol' palm sander, though..... we'll see what turns up.

After the first couple hours it becomes pretty soothing

This! Here are some examples I've gathered of cool body shapes that can be had starting from a strat body (found them on offsetguitars if I remember correctly). I'm definitely trying to make something like the first one myself someday.
