Just finished it, only pick guard to do, I will make a video of how it sounds soon, getting those pots in was a frickin nightmare even with my special way, a ground wire fell off and only one pick up worked so I had to undo it and put all the pots back again, but I'm happy now... I actually sanded it with 1000 grit and then buffed it with my car buffer and mcquires and the guitar is smooth as silk, but it has a semi dull effect, I'm happy with it this way

Looks amazing...I mean, if you like orange hollowbodies.
Huge hat tip!
F-holes came out great. Love the semi-matte finish.
Personally, I wouldn't hide an inch of it behind a pickguard, even a very very cool pickguard.
Can't wait to hear how it sounds.

Looks fantastic. Congratulations! Like the others, looking forward to hearing how it sounds.
Should be a tone monster with that thick body!

Man, who cares if it's perfect? Be proud of the imperfections! You don't want your art looking like it was ground out by the thousands on some machine! It's a sweet guitar! It'd be the guitar for me. Huge and heavy. Something you can really dig into.
