I kicked myself a couple of times this week for pursuing a pickguardless guitar.
Basically the shipping costs makes it a no brainer to opt for more upgrades (aren't we all easy to persuade or make reasons to upgrade). But in adding an extra pickup the shipment costs jumped up another 10$ totalling 25USD for 40usd on materials...
. Anyways I'll figure out what to do.
Today I took the tape of the body and spend hours tidying up the binding. Though I did sand the binding before the stain and I used automotive tape, some of it still bled through into the binding. Most of it I was able to sand away, but there are three spots, minor spots that still have this *cracked* look.
If anyone has an idea how to remove them, that'd be lovely, if not, they are really small...can live with it.
