Haha - yep. I would love to build three more guitars - a Les Paul Junior with a single P-90, a telecaster, and a Tom Morello copycat. Gonna have to balance that with keeping the wife happy lol. She was a saint through this. I have office paws and don't have a lot of handyman knowhow so this took me longer than it should have. Gotta love paternity leave!
