**Andy40** · 16-10-2015, 01:21 PM

Hi Everyone!

Mega stoked. Never done this before, never thought i could. Gonna give it a go.

The sights aren't set high, but the plan is an ST-1 with a nitrocellulose finish in Lake Placid Blue, pearloid pickguard and Tonerider Pure Vintage pups.

nice one Andy, upgrades and plans sound excellent. Good to see the thumbs up in the photo.
I've built probably close to 15 ST kits so if you have any questions fire away in this build diary.
Warning building guitars is more addictive than anything on this planet hahah

Definitely will ask Wokka, I've watched all of Gavmeisters sanding videos (thanks they were excellent) going to do that this evening (or at least start) and I have taken notes from Stewmacs flow chart on Nitro finish but if anyone has any pointers on nitro finish...... i am all ears.
