    good work Shaz, you have probably finished sanding the body but hope you went easy sanding the flame maple veneer !

    EDIT just saw the neck video, headstock shape looks good. Did you do a mock build with the neck in place and 3 pups and check the 12th fret to bridge distance ? Think you have already done this !

    Yeah went super light on it the stain dries a bit darker... hopefully the grain shows nicely still!
    Haha totally just drew a line and went for it, but I really like it!
    Yeah it all fits I did initially have to adjust the neck as the top part of the mounting block overhung about 3 mm so I notched it out so the pickup fitted, didn't take any length off the neck and it's perfect length

    Hey Andrew, The break won't be long enough that's for sure haha! But I'm thoroughly enjoying it
    Cheers! I was so dang nervous! Even with the little error I'm still stoked with it

    Shaz, well done on all your vids, really like them all, it was seeing the ones for the GR-1SF that inspired me to give it a go and got me into my first purchase from Pitbull, Adam should be paying you commission....

    Dang it!! I've just remembered I'm meant to do a black undercoat and sand then start applying the finish 😭😭 I've already almost finished the top.... might have to do a sand back and start again

    It's all ok! I did a light sandback and the grain is still sweet 😁
