62 Custom?

Well I've got the dbl-bound sunburst body drying/curing now. I'm going to finish the neck this weekend. I still need a pickguard. I've used stew-mac white bindings.

Would the mint 3 ply pickguard look funny with bright, white bindings?

Anyone want to see pictures now or after it's complete?.......could be a few months......Don Mare pups and a Glendale bridge and saddles to save for!

PICTURES NOW! Of course...
Most people love to see build pics around these parts!

Testing...I don't see them..I've been hesitant about putting pictures in case it ends up as firewood.

That's beautiful. And I think mint would look pretty good on that.

Hey thanks for the responses. I got a good deal today, local shop had a Fender standard pickguard in white with the plastic sheet still stuck on and let it go for $5!
