I wonder how you are going to make that decall. It sure looks amazing!

It's easy but not cheap Kick. I take the artwork to a sign maker who prints it in reverse onto clear material. I then apply it to the back of the clear pick guard so that you are looking through the pick guard to the sticker which now looks the right way around. Because you can't print white, the guard is still transparent so then a layer of white decal is put over the back of the first one....convoluted but it works.
I did these the same way

Smart thinking Dedman

Nearly done, just needs a final polish. The pick guard had a sad accident, just after I'd applied the decals to the back I sat it on top of some stuff to dry, just then my workshop manager ( a magpie) decided to pay me a visit, landed on it and sent it tumbling down the back of the bench resulting in a deep scratch on the top above the bridge. needless to say she didn't get fed that day.

Anyway, trem cavity is filled on the top, back has a new custom cover, new hardtail bridge, pick up is a Kent Armstrong. Single volume control/push pull to split the pick up.
