It took me a long time to find time/get the right weather to finish it (a fecking year!) but the finish is curing at the moment. Should be ready to sand/buff/polish in the next couple of weeks.

It'll look amazing when done, I've mocked it up a bunch of times. I'll post up pictures once it's all together. Think Bigsby, soapbar P90 in the neck, tortoise pickguard...
