I've liked the look of the St Vincent signature guitar from the first time I saw one,
@FatPete was kind enough to produce me a pdf of the body from a photo and Deed-Poll on OSG forum did the magic and CNC'd the mahogany body.....its just come off the CNC and I am genuinely emotional!.........
I will be using a Dano 3 a side neck,(from @SteveRobinson) ;;3 P90's, Strat switch, some design elements have veen changed compared to the real thing, controls follow the line of the front bevel, weight relief, pickups, hardtail....
Can't decide on colour! It should be outrageous! I'm thinking Burnt Orange with matching headstock!

*I don't have the facility to do large flake....
It needs to be rattlecan or stain and wipe on poly....

This is not a slavish copy, I'm trying to create something whacky 60's era spaceage but with playabilty.......like Dano etc might have made, a bit Jetsons....Ive had a whacky idea with the scratchplate....

Talk me through painting Perspex, I like the idea.......although Tom at Gig Ink does Acrylic with a film on the rear, but I would be interested in how the painting is done, what type of paint, prep etc
