Boy oh boy, you've certainly done justice to what was a relinquished "special". If the rest of this axe turns out as well as the body I'd say you have a potential GOTM winner . . .
Looks amazing Tony! Great job - that finish is sensational.
cheers,
Gav.

Very nice man, you got me thinking about a black burst on my latest now. Great job Tony!!
Finished polishing and starting to fit hardware. Couple of extra upgrades than originally planned. Gotoh bridge, metal pickup rings and some locking tuners to still fit. Will wire up tomorrow and have a crack at gluing the neck.
Not sure about the speed knobs though.

So preeeetttyyyy.
The things that make you go #$@^&** %$#@! ^%$#@! *(*$%^&
So lining up for gluing and find that not everything is lining up as it should.
Not sure what I can do from here.
Suggestions?
Tony
Maybe redrill the holes and cover up the old ones with a plate like this:
