    Some good progress yesterday night and tonight. Electronics should be all good based on testing with multimeter.
    Hopefully I should be able to put it together by the weekend!

    Does anyone remember the Monty Python 3 sided LP title matching tie and handerkerchief? It featured the famous Aussie Bruce sketch as well as the Cheese shop. Absolutely hilarious.

    Well no Monty Python for me tonight, but instead I did some good work and I think I'm done with assembly.
    All pickup and switches sound like they're working which is great!

    I've set it up with the kit strings and left it tuned. Tomorrow I'll look at setting it up as action is mega high.

    Don't know about the headstock logo...
    I played with bits of stickers and words, but I think I like it without a logo... it's meant to be simple with no frills in my mind: visible wood grain, metal and black & white, no frills... a working bass

    I initially wanted a matt finish but the TO came out gloss and if I sand the top the deep grain stays glossy so looks weird.
