Quick query: What's my best bet for buying a 3-ply white pearloid scratch plate? Adam said that Fender specs should fit but there's different types of Fender ones etc. What's the general consensus?
Also a quick update: I bought my finish. Have gone for a turquoise woodwash so that I get a nice colour but also can still see the grain. Also grabbed a gloss coat for body and satin coat for neck. Have spent the last 2 days sanding. And sanding... And sanding... I can see the light at the end of the tunnel now though haha, finally down to the 400 grit.
