Really nice re-lifing of a lost soul, sir.
I think that resurrecting the strays counts fer bonus points in whatever happens after we die,lol.
That is the perfect color for that amazing pickguard, a sunshiny close-up when You get a chance, please :)

The biggest crime is that not enough people will wander into this thread to see the stunning work that you've done.

On the other hand, it means we continue to keep the Mory Jazzmaster secret relatively under wraps.

Nice work! Love the way that pickguard looks against the gold finish.

That's come up great! A friend of mine has just got one in from Japan, sunburst like yours was and with a similarly awesome pickguard, but with a different trem. Very cool guitars.

Oh man, that's beautiful. That's what a long series of perfect decisions looks like.

Finally some sun here, we seem not to have got the memo about the start of spring.

Found this thread after your post in the eastwood thread and damn this is such a beautiful guitar. Absolutely beautiful. The gold looks especially wonderful with the pickguard in the light.
