Very nice! I love the pickup covers; they works so well with the jaguar aesthetic!

Awesome, love how the color pops.

How much work did you have to do on the guitarmill body?

The pickup switch route needed to be opened up a bit more. After working with a luthier we decided it would be better to do an open route so any wiring changes were easier. The neck pocket also needed to be opened up slightly to fit the neck.
