Congrats Dave! I agree with how awesome these kits turn out and how satisfying it is building your own!

Not sure if I am doing this right, I tend to get a bit lost in these forums. Anyway...

Here's my first go at one of these kits. It's a 72 Thinline Deluxe/Jap Super Deluxe mash-up.

Quite fast and "twangy". In addition to the cosmetic mods (and through-body stringing) I also split the humbuckers with a 3-pos toggle. Pretty good result.

Cheers.

Big congrats to Pablo on a well earned win!

I was pretty chuffed just to read the nice things that were said about all our entries.

Thinking of entering a humble Dairy Blonde Stratocaster....

Gavin,

Very tidy. Did you apply a stain, or go straight over with clear?

This finish reminds me of a re-co I did on a P-bass, we went Gloss clear over under-coats of Satin clear on natural wood.

Hi Rhay

I used the Wudtione Dairy Blond with gloss top coat!
