looking awesome Steve, getting a nice shine and that deep red really pops nicely. I was going to guess the green axe was a FV-1G kit. Look forward to seeing finished pics of that too
Just gear yourself up for the wiring Steve, by the time you finish it looks like a pile of spaghetti and there are so many ways to run the wires with all the pup cavity holes and central channel.
Now I've got so much more wiring experience from when I built mine I might strip the wiring and start again.

Thank's wokka. I found several different wiring diagrams online, one at Pitbull Guitars, one on RAS, one on gear4music, etc.. just need to decide which one to use. They are all a bit different. Any suggestions?
-
Hey Steve, can you please post the RAS and gear4music diagrams here (if you have already downloaded them) and I'll check them out and compare to the PBG diagram.

Sure wokka. Here ya go.

RAS call this model SBD10 double neck.
This is the one for gear4music. There is a pdf file on the page.

Hey Steve, I haven't got time to study the diagrams in detail. The Brooklyn instructions give good pointers where to run wiring but I see the diagram is different to PBG.
Before you attempt any soldering I'd cut all your wires and work out the best route for all the wiring.
I'd probably stick to the PBG wiring diagram.
The RAS diagram looked closer to the PBG diagram but I didn't study it in detail.

I'm not sure I'd want to use the RAS diagram, the volume wiring is a little... odd.

Oh yeah wiring these bad boys is so much fun.. Not! Caused more anger and frustration for me than it's worth haha, almost needed therapy after it 😝 and I still have problems with mine! Mainly cause I suck at wiring but anway 😝

I thought so too Scott, the grounding looks odd to me. Thanks.

Thanks for the encouragement Kurt. LOLz! I'm gonna give it a go anyway, being I already bought it and all. I'll definatly be stocking up on aspirin though. (and several cool adult beverages:p)
