Looking good! FWIW, I do a minimum of 24 coats when I do Tru Oil. That doesn't mean you have to, but I'm one of many that due more than 10-12. I've seen lots that are 30+.
re: your shielding -
You need to run the tape up over the edge of the route onto the body in at least one place on each cavity. (I overlap around the entire cavity if I can - but that's just me)
Secondly, you need to put shielding on the back of the pickguard (if it doesn't have it already) where guard goes over the neck p/u.
It's also a good idea to tape (or wire) so all three cavities have continuity. It's not visible in the photo, but the control cavity is also shielded and contacts with the neck p/u cavity.
