To create is to destroy…

I’ve had the pickups I’m using in this guitar for 5 or 6 years. They were in my very first build which was just a body I made, put on to a Warmoth neck. It was a nice guitar and sounded awesome. But I always thought the pickups were too good for a first build hybrid so after building a few more (mostly all complete builds now) they found a new home. Really looking forward to seeing how they sound in this guitar because I think they’re going to look pretty good…

The gold and black vibe is working for me and I’m happy with how the carve is looking under all that shiny gold.

They say to create is to destroy, and there are many points where I have to sand it all back and spray again in order to inch closer to the final version.

Got a few coats of Nitro on this afternoon, with good weather predicted for tomorrow. We’re getting to the end of the build updates for this one now, final photos to come next, so watch this space!
