A lot of you may have thought me and Lt had given up on this one but not so.. A while back Lt let me know that he was not likely to get onto fitting them for a while so I kind of moved onto other stuff being the busy guy that I am. Well I just finished and tested them and they will be on the way to Lt by the end of the week.

Complete with bespoke maple pup surrounds. The other parts mentioned like the tailpiece and mapl knobs are gonna have to wait until I have a little time to spare. Sorry Lt but I'll get onto them at some point. At least with the pups you can get the thing playing..

yeah ..... it'a gonna be garish!!

I'm an LSU alum and I want a purple and gold git.

There are so many colors of gold and I wanted everything gold to match and plated was the only way.
I had done one before and it always bothered me how the pickups didn't match the pickguard didn't match the knobs didn't match the hardware.

So this one will!
:D

In general it's gonna be stupid but I bet it'll be eye catching ...... until the pickguard catches the sun and blinds you!!
