It's been three years to the day that I started (and subsequently finished) my Les Paul project. At the time, I had talked about a Fender project for the following year, but things happen and it has yet to materialize. Some of you had also mentioned documenting that build too and I will. But, it the mean time, I picked up a SG project to finish for another Pelican. I poked and prodded him to build this guitar, but it became a bit too much for him. I had already done a little work on the fretboard and neck a while back.
*This project will not have daily updates for a while I have other projects I am working on as well and will work on this sporadically for the next month or so.*
Here's how it looks now.
There are a few Ooops in the body that will need to be sorted. If the body is painted a solid color, it would make the fixes very easy if not, I've got my work cut out for me. More on that later when I deal with it.
Tonight, to honor the starting of guitar projects on Christmas Eve., I worked on the fretboard a bit by flushing the rough cut fret ends to the fretboard. I was going to glue the binding on, but the acrylic glue was old and had hardened and with everything closed tomorrow, I'll finish that Thursday.
