A second kit guitar I bought recently. Took quite a bit of work to finish.
The mother-of-toilet seat pup rings, plastic control access plate, and toggle switch plate were all replaced with ones I made from figured maple. I kept the 3-ply vinyl pick guard, it matches with the pickup tops...but had to modify it to fit around pups, and create access to the height adjustment pup screws on the lower side.
Body is swamp ash, finished with Minwax Polyshades Satin.
First time using a Bigsby...what a booger to get the string ferrules to stay on the tremolo pegs while tightening the tuners...but got easier after the first couple.
I treated the fingerboard (rosewood) with lemon oil, which really darkened it up.
Headstock was blank, so I decided to go with a traditional shape for this style of guitar.
Will set up intonation tomorrow...Farmer tired.
