Nice save, I like your attitude in trying to save it, you have and will learn a lot from it . It looks good and your next will be even better for it

Thanks Stan! I couldn't let it go, although you should have seen it! The finish and stain were rock solid, lumpy and crazed..... I didn't think it would come off without ruining it completely.
Hoping to get a really nice shine on it, and the couple of flaws in it will add character!
Best wishes
Ok so today I just did a quick mock up of the parts. The pickup mounts and control cover I laser cut from cast acrylic at work. Humbuckers are cheapies from eBay, but they look well made and have reasonable magnets.
Still a week or two before I can polish it and start assembly.

Yeah mate, thats moving along nicely now. I like the oversize PUP Rings and how it all ties together in a really simple form with the bridge. Nice and clean, interesting looking PUPs too. Nice work!
Nice save this is going to come up a treat

Certainly is looking great
Thanks everyone! 😀
Absolutely love that control cover layout - super nice.
Wow Andy great job, a really modern take on this classic, love it
For such a large control cover the knobs and switch are very close. Have you thought about spreading them out more?
