Aye will do! I've not got any proper painting / finishing equipment, so it's going to look really amateur. I'm using some thinned laquer and a paintbrush, hehe. When the last coat of clear laquer is done, I'm hoping any imperfections in the paintwork will be sorted as I'm going to get some auto wax and put a coat or two of that on and buff it up. It's all really cheap hardware, the bridge, pickup rings, knobs / switch etc cost me about £35 altogether and the tuners cost about £30 for the set. It's only a Bronze series so I didn't want to go overboard on the hardware prices.
But I'll be actually making my own guitar when I have all the materials, so I'll spend a bit more on the hardware for that one and I just went out and bought an Airbrush which I'll use to finish that one. The axe I'm doing now is just a test run to see if I have the balls to actually do stuff like this, hehe. So far it's going ok though, will def post pics. :D
