Paint is pretty soft as weather sucks atm here in Adelaide going to haft to leave it a week before i polish it have put up a pic that shows the ridge on the front more pic's to come but you can see where im going with it

Cheers guys, the Lag is finished very pleased with it its now in my top 3 guitars i have and play every day, colour is amazing but cant get a pic that shows it, i have upgraded pups and surrounds from black to cream, pots and control knobs to Les Paul type. for those who want to copy the colour its 4 coats of hi fill then 3 coats of shanghai red then 4 coats candy apple clear then 10 coats of clear lacquer w&d then 2 flow coats all up i have 110 hours in it heap of sanding to level out the front and smooth out where the knobs are went the extra mile because it will replace my Les Paul with i find to hard to play in a wheelchair anyhow hope you guys like it. that's me till after xmas and PBG have no stock of the one i want
