Cheers Lawry!
Looking forward to putting on another top coat to see how it shines through :)
Build update: Neck finish first coat on, will do the fingerboard tomorrow night when this has dried :)

Are you going to shape the headstock? If so, it would be better to do it now before you go any further with neck finish
agreed, Dangerman the headstock needs to be shaped before any more neck coats, you got any shapes in mind ?
Never fear, Fretworn!
Will be shaping it tonight, then applying the finish over the top. Thanks for the reminder though :)
I think the telecaster shape will be my aim... Although I may give it a bit more curves
sounds good Dangerman, probably best thing to do is to trace the paddle shape, photocopy it and draw/cut out a few shapes, stick each one on the paddle and see which one you like the best
Looking forward to seeing your headstock shape!
cheers,
Gav.
Hey guys,
Build update: Finally finished my headstock design today... I know I was looking for a tele but mid-way through the filing I thought, why not be a little bit original?
So ive changed it up a smidge :)
I also received my pit-bull pick-guard today too (yay!) and so I have attached a picture as little tease :)

wow Danger that pickguard looks excellent on the azure body. Are you using toilet rolls to prop up the body ?
I reckon about 50% of your photos you have your feet in there - good work.
Any headstock pics ?
