Shuie- looks great. Much as vintage cream is my fave- with beautiful grain, I have to ask- why not butterscotch to show it off?

I was going for a somewhat visually accurate '55-'58 replica. I think the butterscotch you are referring to is the yellow, right? Thats actually for a '51-'54, or blackguard guitar. The really accurate repro hardware for a blackguard replica, while attainable, is a lot more money and harder to source, so I just went ahead and tried for a '55-'58. There are a lot of small details on the '55+ guitars that make them easier to recreate, at least to point where they look period correct, with off the shelf stuff. I'll do a blackgaurd replica for my next one
