Looks great. Keen to hear your thoughts on the Alumitones. I've finally found a use for my guitar equipped with them. Drop D + Boss ML-2 Metal Core. Works great for all that high gain metal malarky.

Cool, thanks everyone.
Here's a sound clip. Please excuse my average playing the tight string spacing is fucking with me a little.

The clip is just straight DIed off of my pedal board into a focusrite Scarlett 18i20, no amp.
The first part is me going through all the switches and knobs and so on. The second part i'm just fucking around.
Here's my pedal board.

The playing is fine man, always hard on the spot.
The sound out of the alumitones is pretty much what I'm getting as well.
Great looking build that obviously plays well, nice work.

Turned out beautiful
Now I want one 😩
Man that has some MENACE in its voice eh? Me likee!!
The scratchplate/alumitone/Telebridge look is utterly marvellous and I know the Quilt top is killer, but I really dig the way the back came out as well.
Fantastic work mate!

That's glorious! Well done! What did you end up stringing it with?
