cool Pablo should look sweet. Is it the larger pups that require you to make a new pickguard ?

A few different issues; the pickup is a slightly different size and I wanted it closer to the neck, I wasn't that happy with the shape of the stock guard (mine is a bit closer to the original) and where my neck sits it pushes the guard back enough that there is a gap into the control cavity and the curve doesn't follow the body./<\\/p>[/<\\/p>[]<\\/p>/]<\\/p>/Quote from wokkaboy on September 30, 2014, 12:36

Mostly little things, but once I start something like this I can get a wee bit obsessive.
Thanks Gav, I think interstellar might be overstating it a bit.![]()

It's not perfect by a long shot, but I'm pretty happy.

Damn this build just gets better and better. I know it's easy to pick holes in your own work but it looks pretty special from where I'm sittin'!
Dam pab, that looks sweet.
