    Last minute entry!!
    Here's the Carson-Stein.
    Started out as a sticker bombed wreck that looked like it had been used as a cricket bat.

    It was missing a nut, strings and a fair bit of paint was missing in places. The electrics were corroded and in more than one place not even connected.

    Eventually, it turned out like this!






    Details:
    Pickups - Secondhand units supplied by Wazkelly.
    Standard Single(5.7) in the bridge, taken from a Magnum.
    WSC Single Hotstack(9.7) in the middle.
    And lastly, a Standard Humbucker(11.5) taken from an EX-1 Build.

    Pots - 500k's for both Volume & Tone.

    Switches - 3-way(On-On-On) Mini Toggle Switch for Hot Stack - Parallel/Split/Series
    Standard 5-way selector switch.

    Knobs - Solid Aluminium with Rubber rings for grip.

    Strings - Dunlop 10-46's

    Tuning Machines - Secondhand units supplied by WazKelly.

    Finish -
    Body - Dulux Duramax Granite Effects(Rattle Can) - 3-4 coats
    Semi-gloss clear coats on top - 4-5 coats.
    Headstock - Dulux Duarmax Black Semi-gloss.
    Neck - Dingotone Clear Neck Finish - 2 coats of stain, 2 coats of top coat.

    Thanks JB, only strung it up 20mins before taking these photos, so they are still settling in.
    I'll try and get a video done of it tonight.
