    Today's progress

    Succumbed to the irresistible urge and put another coat of finish on. That'll do it. Cut out the scratchplates and will await the results of the clearcoat experiment on them; dull matte black is exactly that- dull.

    And finally put the dummy pickups on to test the look. I'm quite pleased so far.😁

    Hand crafting guitars, because Death Rays are expensive.
