    A real stunner with the finish on, really brings out the burst

    That burst is a thing of rare beauty...

    Thanks so much guys! I am pretty damned excited to finish her! Awaiting for the bone nut to arrive. Also the bournes pots sit really high above the body so it looks terrible. I have to source another set of nuts for the inside thread of the pots so I can adjust the height. A few annoyances at the end of the build but nearly there!

    sounds good Damo. This will be a very tough build to beat it in GOTM
