Got the custom guard finally! Will be going in for reassembly shortly... I'm pumped. Again, here are some terrible pictures. Once it's all done I'll take some real ones.

Kracdown, that looks fantastic!! I was a bit skeptical about the choices when I first read it, but that scheme is very easy on the eyes, and it screams "rat pack era Vegas" ;D

Yowza! You should send pictures of that to reverend. I have a suspicion they would thoroughly appreciate it.

You can only play this guitar when wearing a suit with slicked back hair and a cigarette in an ash tray next to your martini

Excellent glitter flake finish and the guard works great also. Can't wait to see it together. :)

I can't come up with anything that's wrong with this one. A beauty, and way better than stock. The guys a Reverend Guitars should take notice!
I am.

Put together and sounds great! But, not completely done so no more pictures yet:

I bought knew knobs and a switch tip but then realized that they would not fit the import stuff.

I think I'm going to upgrade the wiring... There's now a lot more volume loss on the bass contour circuit.

I really don't like the pickup rings... What color is the solution?

I think black rings would fade into the background more.

That looks like a million bucks, but i see why you're not happy with the pickup-rings. I'd try black (to compliment the switchknob) or completly white to blend better with the pickguard
