More fantastic entries, great work every one.
beautiful strat DK, really love that timber pickguard and the colours.
Love the IB5 Idklin, the caps on these models now makes the edge really stand out when done in a lighter colour as you have done. Pretty amazing grain on the cap !

OK - Here we go. First completed guitar. Swapped the nut for a bone nut. All else is standard. Finished with Dingotone Colourless finish and a beeswax furniture polish.
Hi, finished my LP and thought I would enter into the GOTM, hope you like it, I am very happy with the result seeing though it was my first kit.
Standard wiring, fully shielded and gold hardware upgrade from PBG with a custom rosewood truss Todd cover and some i-Ching lucky coins as machine head washers. The timber top is too nice to cover with a pick guard so leaving it off. My mate is a spray painter in a hot rod shop and he guided me through the 15 plus coats of clear lacquer and hours of sanding, polishing and finishing using 3 levels of high tech polishing compounds...the result is stunning, specially in good light, thanks Scotty! Not much light when the pics were taken, hope it shows up ok.
Cheers
Daveyson
...did I mention it sounds and plays great after some simple setup!
