Looking for a rear cavity cover for Varaix 500

Hello,

 

I am looking for a rear cavity cover for the Variax 500.  I was going to do a custom transplant, so I sold off my gutted body with covers.  Now, things have changed so I am gonna go with a warmoth prerouted Variax body.  If some one has a left over cavity cover you would like to sell, or if youu could just scan your cover I could make one.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would email or call Warmoth first but when I got my prerouted Variax strat body from Warmoth it came with a cover

 

(then I sold my 500 body complete with its cover)

 

This was a couple years ago though

Re: Looking for a rear cavity cover for Varaix 500

i think warmouth  makes  the  bodies to order  just  have them cut a  matching  wood  cover  if  one  doesnt  come with it. rather  than  having   the large  clunky door on the  back id  rather  have   a  battery box  like in the  acoustics .   quicker  change  out.  or you could do what im going to do  on mine .  batteries   will go in the  strap  like a  wireless  rig.  and  just have  a  1/8 plug  to connect  power from the  strap.

 

     i made up a   test version of  this  and it worked  just  fine. so you con have  two    pockets    for a  spare battery.

Re: Looking for a rear cavity cover for Varaix 500

I have a cover, as well as a neck and other stuff from a Variax 500 that was used on a boyfriend with a hard head...

 

I'd like $100 for the whole mess or ??

 

Enclosed is a picture.

Thanks,
