    Yep franky, first cut the shape out then fibre glass tape, ebony timbermate and sand back, bushfire sunrise and sand back, black stump and sand back, finally clear coat, cut the pickup rout out and drill the holes and hope i dont snap them along the grain. Its gonna be fun

    There is never a shortage of things to keep us occupied on these builds.

    Nice looking PUP's. Are they HB's or P90's?

    All back together today, strings need to settle for a week or so, the new lace nitro hemi pickups have got some great bite. Only had a quick 5 min play to see if it all worked, cant wait to give it a good test out later in the week
