Well 2 some odd months later, and I finally Finished it. Designed, fabricated, sanded, re-worked, put-together, disassembled, reassembled, lacquered, sanded, re-lacquered....and it is finally done.
Little video to listen for the first real guitar sound.
It was fun. This will definitely NOT be the LAST. I have already started designing the next incarnation to make it better, bigger, and more grandiose and closer to what I really want in a custom guitar.
But here is the very last steps I took to finally push me past the finish line:
Lacquering the body on my back porch.
I layered it on real thick because I was going for a real glossy shine. You can see how wet and slick it look, and all I used was just Cabot Lacquer from a spray can. $5.
Now I have shown you the last step of my process. Here are some full angle pictures of the finished product:
