    It smells awesome!
    Liks someone just peeled a mandarin next to me.

    I think I would have been happier with a 'redder' colour, or more base coat in the package, but like I said earlier, this is a budget build using as much existing 'out of the box' stuff as I can without changing or upgrading anything.
    I expect the colour will change as things progress.

    Next turned my tiny, illogical brain to the minefield of wiring.
    I'm a bit intimidated by the wiring, and it didn't make it any easier that the site does not offer wiring harness build strategies for this particular kit.
    Fortunately, the original designer of this style guitar has kindly left actual wiring diagrams for their instruments on their site.
    Unfortunately, the knob and switches provided in the kit are not the same, but I think I got the right idea.

    The plan is for master volume in top left of the guitar with the pick up selector three way switch.
    Master tone in the top right. Volume for each pick up in the bottom.

    I have things poked in a cardboard box and Ive watched some videos of poor bastards threading plastic tubing though F holes, using coat hangers, long bits of dowel to locate everything.
