    Looking great Tony. Love the green, especially with the black guard and hardware!

    Cheers,
    Gav.

    Got the neck bolted on and hardware bolted on and wired ( not that theres much wiring). Bit more work on fretboard and ready to string and setup.

    Hey VH2580, what did you think of the black upgrade pack? To me it seems like incredibly good value, considering you'd be lucky to get a single bridge or set of tuners for that price, let alone all the hardware you need.

    I did notice the scratchplates were all bent out of shape when they arrived (poor packaging). Was yours ok?
    Cheers,

    Adam

    Hey adam really good value for the upgrade. As far as being bent out of shape it was pretty good and lay flat on the body nicely.

    Very nice. Green and black, my favourite colour combo.

    Schmiko job on the finish, Tony ... top shelf stuff ... and the black hardware really sets off the green! Great Job!


    Wait a minute ... that sounds like Rock and/or Roll!

    SG-1 ... "Little Miss" finished in Flamenco Cherry Wudtone
    TL-1A ... "Slugger" finished in Antique White Nitro
    EX-1 ... "Metal God" finished in nickel-plate (work in progress)
    ST-1A ... "Scrapper" stained and finished in linseed oil ... and with the "secret weapon"
    GR-1SF ... "Rocker-billy" (just arrived, work in progress)
