very cool, and I bet far more satisfying to create yourself, than pay a lot of money to have someone else bash one up for you

might as well sling my neck in on this one. no headstock close up sorry, but its just a standard tele one. can take one if it matters but having seen the caliber of entries from previous months i doubt ill score high anyway
That's a slick effort there Ben, you can tell you've put some time into getting it right, I fricken love that colour.
G'day guitar enthusiasts.
My first attempt at a custom guitar kit is this SG-1F.
The front is 2 wudtone colours blended. Azure Lagoon and Dark Onyx. There's slightly more of the Azure Lagoon with a 60-40 ratio in its favour. Finished with high gloss no ageing.
The rear is Dark onyx on its own and the neck and headstock are finished with a deep mapel stain and neck gloss finish.
Overall extremely pleased with the result and was a lot of fun building throughout the entire process.
Pete.
