    We haven't had many of those in Perth lately - so we're kinda unused to them .

    BTW the standard of guitars is exceptionally high - great job to all - unfortunately we can only have one winner each month.

    I'm not sure if mine is going to make it. The last top coat I put on mine is taking forever to cure, and it was a very thin coat. Having said that, the weather has been horrible down here.

    Thanks so much everyone - a great batch of guitars this month, as it seems to be every month! Props to all at Pitbull for supplying us with consistently good kits, and in particular to the forum here: it would have been genuinely impossible to make my guitar without your assistance and wise advice.

    I just wanted to add a specific thank you to gavinturner on here. Gav's posts on here (and on his http://guitarkitbuilder.blogspot.com.au/ blog) around the painting/finishing process were invaluable - I followed his steps to the letter to get the finish I got. Thanks Gav!
