So, I'm cracking on now. I've got a 1st top coat on the body and the neck. I'm doing the neck in two alternating steps, just because it's difficult to handle it if the whole thing is treated at once, so I've top coated everything but the fretboard, and sometime in the next day or so I'll do the fretboard. Then I'll do everything but the fretboard again, and alternate till I've got 2 or 3 coats on the whole thing. It's all looking pretty sweet so far.
Also, with my heart set on the yellowed white pearloid pickguard, I couldn't quite come at $55 for the thing (including postage) so I've been looking for ways of getting the same effect for less dough. My solution is to get a stark white pearloid pickguard for reasonably cheap off the interwebs and give it the Wudtone ageing process (set out here:

(By the way, are there any chapettes lurking around here?)
