Well, after about a month, I have recovered from the disasters. I have all the parts on hand, the body for the green one could be polished at any time (I'm waiting till the neck is ready though), the pink one is getting clear coated (I'll be wet sanding it today, then about 10 more coats with another wet sanding in the middle) and it's neck is repaired and curing.
I mounted the pink one's bridge and pickguard (black pearl) yesterday in order to mark it for cutting the control opening, I was very pleased, the combination of ballet slipper pink with lots of black trim looks really sharp. The pickups I'm putting in this one are a set of GFS "Hot Lead" L'il Punchers with coil splitting via push/pull pots. I figured that would give Maddy a wide range of sounds for the "music" she likes. The green one is using a set of traditional Tele pickups, Wilkinsons.
I'll provide some more pictures once the assembly process begins.
