In case any hadn't gathered "Barry Tone" is a JZ6....
Work has started, the headstock has been shaped, just a very simple curve, nothing too outrageous. And the outward facing surface of the headstock painted a somewhat LOUD shade of fluorescent orange (when has any fluorescent colour being anything less than LOUD?".
A little bit of work was needed on the ends of some of the frets as they were a tiny bit ragged, but a few seconds with a blunt fine file sorted them out.

And so to the body. This has had the main rout modified to allow the bridge pickup to move nearer the bridge by about 15mm, the output jack is moving from sticking straight out of the face to down on the side; in part this is to allow the bridge pickup change-over switch to be on the top (more about that later), and the trem pocket filled (I don't play with a trem, so why have that hole and hardware?).
I've just tried a small patch with the paint that's going to be used for the body, and, as expected with a water based paint, it's done a great job of lifting the grain so I'll let that dry and sand it back.


(By the way - Is there any way to edit the thread title????)
