    This is indeed going to be the blue/green Dingoburst. And I've yet to order the pickups- thought I'd get the body done first.😀😀

    there's a new word - Dingoburst - very cool !

    Sounds good so sanding the body and sorting out tuner holes and headstock veneer next ?

    Yep, dowelling the holes is tonight's job, then we'll get onto shaping the headstock. By which point the DT bottles should have arrived with the new bridge and the unit will be covered in sawdust again! 😂😂

    Nice, nice, nice.... Did I mention it was really nice?
    High mass bridge should be sweet!

    New bridge- the honking Gotoh 201B-4

    My replacement bridge arrived yesterday and I was keen to check out just how different the mass was to the PBG supplied unit. The results are below- there's certainly a difference....

    Nice looking bridge. Top bit of reading material there too. Thoroughly enjoyed that book.
