The resin experiment MkII seems to have done the trick:

I'm going to have to wick some CA down the edges though as it seems the resin pulled away from the body in a couple of places as it hardened. After hitting it with the router to level it out and trim it down though, it still seemed as solid as a rock so i;m okay with it.

I'm just now fighting an urge to try and mount some LEDS to have it lit up!
This is what the cavity looks like back lit with my shop lights:

I reckon it'd look sick with red pulsing LED Strip in there! Possibly a bridge too far...

In other FrankenWashie specific news, I have just realised that I allocated the SD Black Winters that were going into this to the Cliche Black LP. So Adam now has an order for some Entwistle X3's. we'll give them a run and see what we think, I've also some kit HB's that could go in if i feel the need.

Is looking good mate, neck is coming along nicely

Thanks Stan, the neck is an experiment, the old FrankenWashie neck will be going back on. Eventually.

that neck is looking the business

Yay for the resin work! Does the jack socket area still need some work, or is that sorted now?

Cheers DK, it needs some heel work to fit it tighter to the body, hence it's just a test neck, but it's been a valuable experience, learned a hell of a lot from it.
