    Great idea for the pick guard, must be a way to cut it nicely... I am an ex RAAF photographer , was in for 8 years

    Great to meet up with ex service fella's Stan, I was in the MT trade, ever posted to laverton? I spent a good 6 years there, also 6 at Point cook, along with a naughty few years in support command (did a lot of trips up north-ish from Sup-com.)
    Generally, laminate is reasonably easy to trim/ cut to size, then sand/ rout to final shape..I must have gotten a crappy reject sample.

    I ended up making a scratch plate from 2 mm 5 ply, and did a little gilding on it, not too sure if I like my name how I did it. so it may be coming off. What the thoughts.. make it plain? ( not attached on yet, just have it sitting in possy), apart from that I reckon I've got it finished now.

    Had a look at the pics on your Facebook page and, personally, I think you should keep the scratchplate how it is. It looks great AJ.
