Stan, you are on the money! I noticed this earlier this morning when I was drilling some screw holes in daylight. Already sourced gold washer/nut for input jack. Working on the knobs... .

Here we go folks the home straight. Gold topped knobs and nuts arrived today. Fitted. Then fret levelled. Conditioned fretboard with lemon oil. Adjusted and fitted the nut, screwed on the truss rod cover. Only job left is to set up. This one's action is going low low low. Had a quick plug in and sounds nice with stock pups.

Classy. That is a beautiful instrument, Andrew.

looks so good Andrew, a total pro package, very nice build.
Only 2 things left to do:
Sound clip. I dontt care how good or bad they playing is, but I'd love to hear the stock pups in an ES. I have one yet to build and would love to hear what result you get.
Get it into GOTM, you have a contender!

That's a lovely looking guitar Andrew let us know what she's like to play.. You know making a guitar beautiful ,and I've played a few . But when someone takes the time to do a pro set up its a great combination.And makes you play the guitar even more.

Cheers guys, demo to follow from setup this weekend. It already plays very nicely. Used a radius block this time around for fret levelling.

This one's ended back up on the ramp. Wasn't quite happy with finish on the back and currently applying a few more layers of tru oil. Almost there...
