Personally - leave it off - it's his guitar and Highace knows which way is up. Maybe though - change the switch top to black or chrome? That's the only cream thing on the guitar, but here I'm looking for something small to pick on...

That was my bad with the tuners, they since have been swapped around. As far as the switch surround is concerned i left it off, to my eye it looks too much. The switch top has also been swapped around with a black one but i thought it matched the binding better.
In the end, whatever floats your boat i guess.
Switch plate off and black selector knob for me. For what it's worth.
So long as you're happy that's the main thing - plus - you've seen it in the flesh. Either way its a beautiful guitar and you should be happy.

Cheers Brendan.. The colour of the knob is quite pronounced in the pics but in reality it matches the binding quite well. In the end it can be changed if I don't like the look of it later.
Looks aside, it sounds great. I'll be showing my tutor Wednesday night then I can see what it capable of. Don't have the skill just yet.
Those top hat knobs, man. Seriously classy touch there. Suits the colour perfectly. Lovely guitar and a great first entry. The quality level for this month has been well and truly set.

Hello All
New here and to the forum...
Would like to submit the SV-1 shown, put together very slowly trying to get everything right.
I have tried to make this a copy of a Jem and am still learning.
I finished it off in a three layer pearl and clear from PPG and also cleared the back of the neck as well. The headstock is hand painted and airbrushed to imitate the Jem 7v.
Slowly learning hopefully, the tricks of the trade.
