Good job, ewal.

Thanks guys, now to tidy up the control cavity before taking it to a tech for a set-up

Very nice, I like the finish

ewal

Thanks Dean. The finish is Wudtone Emerald Green, inspired by the Thurston Moore Jazzmaster, the pickups are Mojo WR buckers inspired by the Lee Ranaldo Jazzmaster. Think I'll call it the Toronado Sonic Custom

What for? If you built it, you can set it up! 

It's not difficult. The only thing that might be slightly tricky is cutting the nut grooves if they're not right already, but as long as you get (or make) the right tools and go carefully, it shouldn't be a problem.

That looks just beautiful! I love the combination of the subtle shade of green with the tort pickguard. Looks like a very comfortable guitar to play too, really nice, my congratulations!

Thanks Megii!

I getwhat your saying ICBM - I just think I would get some comfort from knowing the guitar had been given the once over by someone with more skill and experience than me. Think of it as final quality control.
