That looks mighty cool!  :D

I don't know why, but on the Strat-like body shape the silverburst puts me in mind of '80s Aria guitars!

Before my time  :lol: :P

All hardware is nickel and the pups have nickel covers (mounted straight to body). Hope it works as well as I imagine it too without  being too silver.

Very nice. Though I would have thought black hardware would be better. :?

I reckon the nickel will look really great + it looks great when it ages. He thinks it should be ready by the end of next week  :o

Here it is finished and soon on its way to me. Well, to be used as a football by the mail system first :-p
The pics are a bit dark and the purple knobs are still in transit - I may use green anyway :p

Anyway... !  :D

Looking good!  Don't go spoiling it with purple or green knobs!  :lol:

(I think I would try SG-style reflector knobs)
