Agreed, this is going to be a nice guitar. Great work on that finish so far.

Are you going all stock electronics etc?

If you plan on changing the scratch plate in any way I would highly recommend extending the swimming pool route by about 10-15mm towards the bridge so you can relocate the hum bucker (or what ever you are using) a bit closer. I think it was Fretworn who commented on that with my build. I had thought they looked a bit bunched and he confirmed it. Its something I plan to change on the shoe gazer sometime this year.

It works totally fine as supplied, don't get me wrong, but I reckon you'd get a better twang if that pickup was moved a bit further south.

I'm definitely going to change out the electronics I'm thinking about using Toneriders but i still haven't decided yet i have to see where the budget places me in the next few weeks in any case ill stick with the same pup configuration. Did you stick with stock on the Shoegazer?
I will probably change the scratch plate as well because i don't think the red pearl is going to work in that well with the body color having said that i hadn't really considered moving the humbucker ill keep that in mind for sure thanks for the suggestion.
