Re: new projects
First time tinting and finishing a neck, some areas look like left over dorito dust, but overall I'm happy, and it was a great learning experience.

Re: new projects
The ongoing battle, I have to rout the neck pickup more for that pickup ring, finish the nut, wire it up, ugh.

Re: new projects
Spent some time with the router today, making a pickup designed for an archtop into a solid body makes for some fun mods.

Hoping tomorrow to start wiring, and more work on the nut.

Re: new projects
Basic setup done, definitely need to spend some time on the tone pot, and do a proper setup, but it feels surprisingly good. No doubt I will tear it apart in the future and change things, but I am surprised how well this guitar has worked so far.

Re: new projects
Got the bridge together, once cooter sends back the neck I just have to widen the pocket.
