    All Done.

    Here she lays in all her glory.

    This is the most heavily electronically modded build yet for me. Much thanks and appreciation to Weirdbits for his continuing wiring guidance....thanks mate.

    I would like to thank Wazkelly for his headstock shaping ideas and general information and Tru Oil madness along the way. Thank you mate.

    She has the stock bridge.....the stock tuners.....and amazingly the stock PBG Chinese pickups......the rest is all me and parts stores...and weirdy and waz.

    Bourns mini push pull pots x 3 as per weirdys diagram on the previous pages. Recessed Black Tele jack socket, black strap locks...she be big and heavy, switchcraft jack socket, orange drop capacitor on the tone pot....which is a CTS mini 250k pot. She has a black metal slash cut three string string tree.

    Stock strings right now.....may do some elixir or dáddariooooos.

    Body and neck filled with Mahogany timbermate and sanded off...neck has minimal colour left behind....but the body did fill well.

    Many many many coats and sandings and coats of Tru Oil. Finished with Meguiars and Bowdens Own auto body products.

    Ebony fingerboard is treated and cleaned with Dunlop Lemon Oil...then DW wax....then Dr Ducks Axe wax all over the guitar.

    The decals are all laser printed water slide decals I designed and made.

    World....meet the LOW BEE.
