Looking great Waz, I haven’t seen that conductive paint before ,where do you get it from? I couldn’t leave my builds for more than a day, I am too excited to get to next bit, and the next bit,let alone months. Maybe I should slow down a bit.l
Wayno.

Hi Wayne, I bought conductive paint online (eBay) a few years ago for both the Explorers and here is the link..... https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/CONDUCTI...-/171335822312

# 7 - ES-1 Runner-up GOTM Aug 2018https://goo.gl/T9BEY8
Almost done with final layers of finish and itching to get onto assembling stage. Thought the TO had an aged look to it and had to drag out the natural neck on my J Bass to compare and was surprised to discover both looked almost the same? From memory I thought the J Bass was lighter than that??? Here are the comparison shots....
Now shown with the body. Whilst maple and basswood are fairly light coloured timber, basswood typically is a little bit darker and really pleased with how the neck & body colours are a very close match.....

Thanks Guv.
Just ordered an aftermarket bridge this morning and not sure if that will arrive before end of this month. Getting close to calling the finish done and will have to make a start on the electronics soon.
