Ok thanks guys, will leave it till mid week and then give it a nice easy sanding with some 2000 wet. I didn't put a lot of coats on it and if need be I will sand it back but happy to try and work...

All assembled and worked on action/intonation today with the kit strings before I put on the Elixir's .010-.052

Got my new shiney vintage style tuning pegs today... Into the acid fume bath for a couple of hours to age them around 30 years... lol

Bummer, my vintage style tuners didn't arrive this week. Another delay... hoping for next week

Very nice job

Think you will like the mod Gavin, you can get the switches from a company in Maroochydore, QLD if you want to cruise the site it is http://www.realparts.com.au/ free shipping over $99.00 I think and...

LOL Robin, I done the CTS upgrade as well put the router in before I finished the body so was ok. I did have the make the depth deeper to take the 4 way switch though which did catch me out after the...

Hi all I have upgraded my 3 way switch on TL-1 to a 4 way switch to increase the available tones on this axe. The upgrade adds to the normal Bridge, Bridge/Neck Parallel, Neck to a further option of...

Well I was thinking about it Fret but don't want to screw up the pickups so first I will put them in new and then perhaps decide later, if they look out of place. Pretty easy to do it later I guess...

Just an undercoat for the next colour if you are not happy....

Waiting for my new hot wired pickups to arrive, putting the other lot in first to compare between each set.

Looking good mate

Yes willing to try anything.... almost ready to install all hardware, the neck and start testing for sound

Yes looking forward to final assembly and sound check!!

Loose fit of the hardware to check things out.
