Looking good dozy. Only 38 more to go.

cheers, Mark.

That is a very nice colour.
Are you going for a smooth glossy look or the rustic timber look like Gibson's "worn" finishes?

I think I'm going with where I end up, to be honest :)

But as smooth and glossy as I can get it over the next week.

My client is not a purist, but we're both happy with this.

That looks nice and balanced - I like it. Good choice.

I tend to be a traditionalist, not so much a purist, but I think that works well too.

That’s a nice looking red colour and tease of what the fret board looks like.

Well this is odd. Two of the same looking wire coming from the volume pot. Not sure what to do now. Yellow I assume is earth to bridge, but not sure which black wire is hot to output, and which is earth.

I reckon one goes to earth on the jack whilst the other would go to the tremolo claw.

cheers, Mark.
