Re: Latest project guitar COMPLETE!

looks good:fing2: btw is that a scratch there on the upper bout??

It's a scratch in the nitro; that surfaces scratches if you look at it sideways! It will need some buffing/coating later on ...

Don't need the locking nut. Sounds better without it, too.

A BIG +1 to that statement, I had to go fully custom just to have that...

Jess, that's going to groove out your nut eventually. Might want to look into replacement nuts that are designed to drop in a locking nut route but are standard nuts. Like the ones Paul Gilbert uses.

Edit: Like these:

I have it in my main guitar, ain't terrible but ain't as good as a "proper" nut either...
