    Fine looking axe! You could use the cure time to shop for platform boots and leather.

    Thanks Fender3x.

    "You could use the cure time to shop for platform boots and leather."

    After waiting 3 weeks, I have finally wet sanded the main part of the body using micromesh pads. Then polished with Maguires Ultimate compound and Scratch X. Added the electronics and tested with the screwdriver test. All seems to be working.

    I'm still working the neck with FW wipe-on-poly. It needs a few more coats to cover the logo.

    Finally got the headstock logo buried under the wipe on poly.
    Added the tuners and bolted on the neck. Rough tuned using the kit strings. Everything is still holding together.
    I will leave it for a couple of days and then do a full setup.

    And yes, still no blood or makeup!
