It looks awesome. I want something like that especially like Becker's guitar with the colored numbers on the fretboard.
I made a Kramer Baretta/Focus mutt and it wails. I was gonna tear it apart for my Lynch Tiger but everyone that played it said" DON"T DO IT" so needless to say it cost me a few hundred more for a new Floyd and stuff for the Tiger.
Sometimes the mutts/junkers have a special thing to them. I thought I wouldn't care if i dinged it or something but i'm just as anal with that one too.

I mounted the neck today and filled in the hole where the old volume knob was. Enjoy.

All that i need is a gold Gotoh hardtail bridge. I'm having a hard time finding one that isn't astronomically priced. The search is still on.
I picked up a five way selector, an input jack and a 500k volume pot.
If i had the bridge, i could start soldering the wires(as i need to solder the ground wire to the bottom of the bridge.
As soon as i got home from work, i went to Lowes and got the bolts and washers. They had exactly what i needed. I picked up the other things at Guitar Center by work. I cannot wait to finish this monster. AAAHHHHHH!!

Man that looks sweet. I bet it´s gonna play sweet too.
How did you fill in the hole where the old volume knob was?
I can´t wait for pics of the completed version.

It was simple. I went to walmart and bought a wooden dowel stick. I came home and cut off about a 1/2 inch piece. Then i proceeded to glue it into the hole using elmers wood glue.
all kidding aside. it was simple.

Thanks to Anders posting, now I know why the guitar looks familiar. With the multicolor pickups and the natural wood finish, it looks similar to Jason Becker's Numbers guitar.
