Shielding tubs arrived today, courtesy of Jazzprod (thanks again, Dan) - miraculously, my cavities were exactly the right depth for them and they fit in without problems. There's a few gaps where I adjusted the routing to my '68 template, but nothing untoward. Do the flaps I've hammered down from the control cavity go under or over the pickup shields, by the way? Need to get that right when I come to nailing things down.
The colour looks really dark indoors on a rainy day, more like a metallic british racing green or something:
Sun came out later to allow me to get two more coats of clear done, and I took the opportunity to replace the original split-shaft pots I had with solid-shaft jobbies.
