Hi,
Well it arrived today.
Unboxed and everything was well packed...as predicted.
Couldn't help myself, i had to mock up the neck with the body and as far as my inexperienced eye can tell, its fits perfectly.
This is my first build so I'm taking it real slow. I'm very fussy and moderately OCD.
My plans at this stage is all gold harware with either black or white body colour with gold metalflake front.
I want to add a bit of gold inlay if it doesn't exceed my capabilities and i have also put thought into possibly modifying the binding with gold glitter...mmmmm...(see exceeding capabilities)
I am keen to not have any reference to "Gretsch" .....i.e. on the Bigsby tremolo or on the tone buttons ect....although i adore Gretsch guitars it's not a Gretsch.
Time to order some tools.
