Hey Max, I was wondering what was happening with this bad girl .. great to see it back on the scope!
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)
Great to see the project moving again, love the look of the neck.
You need to fit a can of silly string in the body somewhere so it can shoot a web out of its a$$.
Scott.

I've been working on that "silly string" idea . . . . . . very cool!
Meantime, a little more has been done.
Cut the long slot through the body which will accommodate the curly cord for the PUP.
This will of course have an acrylic cover plate on the back when she's done.
Routed & recessed in the PUP guide rails.
Next job will be to align & tweak this setup.
Escutcheon plate MkII cut and ready.
PUP rail system aligned, Araldited & Liquid Nailed to roughened surface ready to spray black.
Note recessed PUP cable which will be reinforced & soldered to a cutdown curly cord.
I've marked out the body profiling & plan to start carving tomorrow.
nice one Maxxy, you come up with the most bizaar ideas - love it !
