    So a bit of serendipity, then.

    Been a while. Finally got a day off to make some progress. Wiring almost complete. Headstock shaped.
    Replaced tone capacitors with some upgraded bits
    These came highly recommended from a sparky friend

    Love the Swirl finish. I've thought about doing a swirl, but haven't had the guts to give it a go.

    Looking forward to seeing this finished.

    Cheers

    This is an incredible build, Barry.

    You should be super stoked with what you have achieved. I want to hear it in action once it is all strung up.

    Finally finished. Well. Almost. A small wiring problem. Volume for. The neck pickup won't turn off. It'll go quiet but still has signal coming through when turned off?? Any ideas guys? Could it be the pot? Or my bad soldering skills?

    Any way some pics.

    Still needs final buff and polish

    Intonation set well
    High e string seems to buzz a little fretted and unfretted. Think it might be the screw mount on the tom bridge that adjust length .
    Apart from that she plays like a dream.
