Drool! These black and white photos sure keep us in suspense. Can't wait for a first colour peek!
cheers,

still hitting it with clear.... I think I'm 1 or 2 away from a mirror finish
got my wiring jig set up as well, will hopefully start on this during the week. It's all stock except for the switch which turned out to be broken, thank goodness I realized before I soldered it all up and installed it haha.
the lineup...
looking good Mick, but there is nowhere near enough crap on your benches...

yer coming along nicely Mick, love the black and white pics
Current Builds and status
scratch end grain pine tele - first clear coat on !
JBA-4 - assembled - final tweaks
Telemonster double scale tele - finish tobacco burst on body and sand neck
Completed builds
scratch oak.rose gum Jazzmaster - assembled needs setup
MK-2 Mosrite - assembled - play in
Ash tele with Baritone neck - neck pup wiring tweaks and play in
got the wiring harness done this arvo, I'll strap it onto my diddley bow tomorrow to see if it works before I install it.
I threw some white paint on the pickup surrounds and knobs as well.... just to brighten it up a bit
Looks good so far. Because I am convinced I can see colour in black and white (even though that's impossible), I'm putting bets on gold bridge/tailpiece and blueish green stain with beigey-yellow binding.
Keep them coming!
it's been a while...
I figured I should get around to finishing this beauty off so I've been cutting and buffing the finish up ready to start assembly
I'm really stoked on the overall finish, it's like a flat gloss... if that makes sence.
