Refinished in Olympic White, my guitar tech had quite a job removing the old lacquer. In a previous ownership, the body had a wavy, uneven surface on the front due to sanding with the bridge left on. My tech had to sand down the front of the guitar quite a bit to get it all smooth and even again. Happy byproduct of this is the tremolo doesn't rock so bad to knock it out of tune.



Next, the stripper glitter painstakingly removed from the original pickguard...at least, I think it's the original pickguard. In any case, it looks great.

My tech put in my new control switches and set it up for Bridge - Bridge & Neck - Neck on the back switch and on the front switch the ability to choose either series or parallel (when back switch is set to middle position). I think it makes some other cool tonal variations but I haven't had a chance to sit down with it for an extensive period of time yet.
