Ok, well, just shot the first coat of primer anyway. No pics yet. Haven't even decided on the color yet. :D

I think this one will get the Duncan Full Shred.

Ok, here's #14 (first pic) with the first coat of primer, and #15 (second pic) almost sanded and ready for primer as soon as #12 (third pic) dries. :D

White - original! for you - really.

Didn't we just do green?

You should leave one stock.

Tried that a few years ago, just doesn't work for me. The stock pickups and the tuners suck.

And the finish feels more like plastic than the polyurethane clearcoat I put on!

Just tryin to save you some work ;)

I get it though, sometimes modding is more of a hobby for me than playing - and I am definitely better at modding

sidebar - will that filler you are using shrink eventually? Just wondering...

It's not supposed to. I'll probably find out eventually. If I ever did start selling these, I wouldn't fill the cavities or anything, I'd just refinish them and swap the electronics and tuners.

You must have a lot of time on your hands and either no spouse or one who's equally as obsessed with guitars as you!

Has Dean decided to give you a signature axe yet? They really need to see these threads if they haven't.

My gf has her hobbies, I have mine. We stay out of each others' way. :)

I've been posting these on the Dean forum, but no communication from them as of yet. Besides, I'm making my own signature here. ;)

Next one should be covered in beer labels like the thread in the Sound Room shows.

Do you use wet/dry paper on all your finishes to get a nice glassy finish? That takes a while and a lot of elbow grease.
