    The Gold Trim for the win. :)

    Woo Hoo.....first and worst for the month.....I have finished my build diary right here.......

    http://www.buildyourownguitar.com.au...?t=4171&page=3

    She is a Pitbull Strat kit with a basswood body and maple neck and fingerboard. I put a pitbull pearloid pickguard and pitbull gold upgrade pack on her and that is it.

    My mix of colours for the body and the neck....and then finished with naughty oil under wipe on naughty-a-thane.

    Plays wicked....all setup and with a low action....single coil sweetness.

    nice one Ozz this come up looking nice, the yellow fingerboard is a nice change and goes well with the body colour and the gold hardware. Well done

    Dave, that is a beautiful guitar. The sharp cutaway 'horn' is really great. The photos not only show the natural beauty of the guitar, but all the work you have to do this coming weekend

    Dave, one word.
    Classy!

    Woks, It is so much fun highjacking your avatar...
    Has to be some advantages with being a moderator

    There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....
