^^Nice combination of parts in that XII, will be good to see it all together- hearing it would be good too, any chance of some sound clips?

Will try to get some, routing the neck pocket might be a nerve racking experience, but it should be smooth sailing after that

For the most part anything build thread related goes in this thread. I will get updates on that eventually, still working on where to get some fixes done on that.

Looking good.
What's the deal with the Cross decal? will it still be my design?

Here's the design, if needed. I would prefer it if my name goes on it, it's my design.
