No problem my friend, I would much rather see it getting back together than sitting in my work bench!
You might wanna just gun stock oil it as I had to sand through all the sealer and stain in certain areas to knock down those scratches. Luckily all the relic is right int he normal pick sweep area so it def looks authentic!!

Yeah I think I'm gonna oil up that spot to give it a little bit more protection (TWSS)
My mom knows I change my mind a lot in terms of what I want for Christmas so I finally told her today I wanted money toward buying the baritone neck for this guy, cause I can't really think of another way other than christmas to be able to afford one haha
Oh i totally understand, I'm at the point right now where i have to sell something to get something. and after new years its only going to be getting worse.

Yeah. I'm at that point too, which sucks because I'm happy with everything else that I have, and if I got rid of it I would just want to buy it again haha
It is helping with GAS though, not out of choice haha
I think so too man. I miss having a baritone around, just something about the thicker strings that I enjoyed. I think I might set it up for something stupid like G# or F# but we will see!

Got all of the hardware from Ancient last night and got it installed back on the guitar. Swapped out the Phat Cat for a GFS vintage split humbucker, with a push pull pot to split the humbucker.
I put some tru-oil over the sanded area to seal it back up. Beyond stoked to get the neck for this and get it back in action!
I dunno yet! I wont get to try it until I get the neck, which hopefully will be in about 2-3 weeks. Ancient Astro said he enjoyed it while he had it, so I can only assume great things about it!
I kind of want to distress the control plate and pickup to match the bridge? But, I dunno. It's not like TOO far off that it bugs me and the picture is kind of off in terms of how not drasticly different they are
