Hi folks,
I'm just waiting on my kit, so I thought I'd join up and have a look around. Been around guitars for a long time but the closest I've been to a custom one was reshaping a strat copy I bought from cashies and doing a custom paint job.
I work a fair bit with figured hardwoods so I'm no stranger to dust and oiled finishes. For my first kit I ordered a jazzmaster with the Bigsby trem.
Hi Robbie, welcome to the forum and good choice the Jazzmaster with a Bigsby trem. Sounds like you have plenty of experience so look forward to seeing your build.
What's the plan for the build paint or stain/oil ?

At this stage looking to do a stain with oil finish. The ash should look pretty nice that way. I'll confirm that when I see my kit in the flesh.Originally Posted by wokkaboy
