Vinyl vs CD is largely pointless for modern music because almost everything beyond the late 1970's was either recorded and/or mastered in digital before being converted back to analogue for vinyl records.
CDs are of much higher quality than digital downloads because of the lossy compression techniques used by iTunes etc. to squeeze the data file sizes down to something that downloads relatively quickly. Music CDs don't use data compression.
Can anyone else spot the oxymoron here?
I downloaded Joe Walshe's latest album, Analogue Man, from iTunes..............WTF!
There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....

I'll be very interested to see/hear the outcome, Gav. I was talking to a stringed acoustic maniac on the weekend about Wudtone and I couldn't find the right description to explain why you might get a superior tone out of something solid that's not wrapped in plastic. His thinking revolves around hollow-bodies (violins, mandolins, banjos, sitars, bazoukis, etc) so, to him, the finish on a solid body couldn't make much difference. I'd love to point him at some solid empirical evidence!
Given the strat # 1 a dark stain to bring out the grain in the wood. Whilst these guitars are part of an experiment I don't see why they shouldn't look great!
Won't take much to improve on that blue.
(not to detract from the Wudtone)
Gee - that already looks so much better!

Quick query on the shielding: what paint did you use in the cavities?
"Music is in the air; it's my job to pull it out."- Jaco Pastorius
You can get paint on shielding from Stewmac.... but I wouldn’t bother with it as you need to put about 50 million coats to make it sort of work..... I would use Aluminium shielding tape before I bothered with paint on crap again!
