    Ok here it is, my Gibbon SG. It's by no means perfect but was mostly enjoyable to build and plays decently enough.

    Pretty much everything is stock except for the truss rod cover and some tweaks to the electronics. The pickups are the kit pickups modified for 4 wires. The bridge volume splits the coils and the neck volume puts the neck pickup out of phase.

    I used landscapes wool dyes for colour, added some linseed oil then made up some wipe on poly to finish. The varnish I had was a satin finish so it's not super glossy. The neck has been sanded back a touch to give a fast finish.

    The decals were laser printed onto some decal paper using a design I came up with blatantly ripped off from a well known logo.

    That's a very cool SG. Love the black on the bevels and that logo is sensational.

    Great contrast between the green and black - actually the whole thing looks fantastic!
