    Jba-4

    "Jenny" my JBA-4 (ash-bodied) is finally done. Orange Shellac and Tru-Oil finish, everything stock (for the moment) with added copper-foil shielding (to excess... :P )

    Looks good dozy!

    I like the effect the "sharks teeth" give on the headstock. (maybe they're not sharks teeth, but that's the first thing I thought of when I saw it)

    Thanks McCreed. True story: When I drew up the idea a while back, I looked at it from a certain angle and thought I might actually cut the shapes out of the headstock. There's a good chance I'll do that for a future build.
