So, this arrived in the mail a few days ago:



The body is made out of mahogany, the neck is maple and the fret board is engineered rosewood. The gold hardware was a surprise I did not expect as I ordered the kit with chrome. Pitbull offered to send me a replacement but I figured I might as well use the gold hardware and save us both the trouble.

The plan for this kit is a sparkle finish, I'm currently thinking red but that might change after a test piece. Otherwise it'll pretty much stay stock for the time being, apart from a bone nut that I ordered with the kit.

However first things first, I will be doing a full mock build this Saturday to check the hardware and all measurements and if time allows I might start leveling and crowning the frets.
