Something made from wood needs to be ultra shiny and not feel like wood for some reasonSpeak up, you've got to speak up against the madness, you've got speak your mind if you dare

Have stained and grained the body and neck, shaped the pick guard and laid the parts together to see what it looks like, pretty cool I think. Now I have to attach the neck and solder the pick ups and switches.
