    It still needs a setup and the bridge pickup and split still need some work. My question is this, is it finished enough to enter it in GOTM?

    Looking good Andrew. To enter GOTM the electronics should be working and you really need to make an attempt to intonate and setup the guitar. You have to Sunday night to enter it so you may have it ready by then, or technically 2am Monday your time !

    Fixed the electronics (pickup was too low) and shaved the nut hight down. Should finish the rest tomorrow.

    Thanks Nitro. I'm saving up lots of leftover bits for a possible cigar box build.
