    I wasn't going to put forth my JMA-1 but after some encouragement from a few people i decided that i may as well.

    So with the exception of the pickups this has all stock hardware.
    The Pickups are Warman Texas Vintage Rangers in the neck and middle positions and the bridge humbucker is a Warman Retro Rocker aiming for vintage tones there.
    The body was grain filled with ebony timber mate and stained with Dingotone Bushfire Sunrise. For the neck i went with Dingotone Colourless stain. Build time was around 6 weeks.
    Being my first build i wanted to keep it basic i do like simplicity every now and then.

    Best of luck to everyone i look forward to seeing what else pops up this month.
    Wow. Nice colours.

    That has to be the most gloss I have seen from a D.T. finish yet. Nice work looks great.

    Thanks it took a bit of buffing but it came up pretty good in the end. I should also point out something that i forgot to add to my original post and that is the front face of the headstock was sprayed with acrylic clear just to seal the pitbull decal.

    If you're ready for a new mate at some stage - hit Adam up - he's part of the Pitbull Rescue crue here in WA - may have some contacts in Vic.
