FINISHED!
Epic build for me and a huge exercise in patience. Five months and 10 days. This was always the guitar I wished i had. So even if the wife doesn't allow me to hang it in the lounge, I still win!
Last touches done. I ended up replacing the PBG bridge with one of these http://www.realparts.com.au/bridges-...idge-gold.html. If anyone doesn't know the measurements fit perfectly in the factory bored post holes and PBG bushings. The bridge is slightly fatter but doesn't buzz as much.
Still trying to get the intonation perfect. Its close. I'll see if I can get a sound check done for you guys.
