Looks better in the pics than it is, still a bit swirly in places. Probabyl sensible to wait until its a bit more assembled as I'm bound to put some marks on it.
Final fitment of the pickguard done, ended up with a little more gap to the bridge than I wanted, but oh well. If nothing else this build has reinforced that having really good templates saves a lot of headaches and fiddling around. I really need to knuckle down and get a new batch cut.
