Yeah, seriously good work!
Kinda hard to believe, looking back, that you started with so little. Very impressive!!

I've said it before and I'll say it again, your resuscitation skills are amazing, Will!

Absolutely incredible work. That guitar should be called Steve Austin.

crazy! I fully retract my 'it'll burn nicely' comment from when it showed up on the 'why did you do this' thread. Unbelievable save.

Re: Un-Voxing a butchered 1961 Jazzmaster project
Yes - it's one of my favorite thing about guitars like this - I can put the parts together how I want to, with no need to use scratchy 1961 potentiometers.so far so good! Really great work!
if it were mine, I'd be getting some original-esque pickups to go in there. But it's not mine, and I totally respect "it will never be close to original again anyway, so might as well make it into something I want."

Primer time!
Despite my best efforts, I'm anticipating some funky finish cracks. Hopefully they'll add character!
