Evolution of the Bushcaster

I bought this guitar from someone on the forum. Kinda quirky but it's made of vera wood (palo santo) and that is what I wanted. This wood grows in Paraguay where my family is from and I have long wanted a guitar built from palo santo so I grabbed it.

 

I very nervously started to change things on it, and after many many mistakes and regrets and a few tears, here is the finished product. I changed the headstock, the shape of the body and put in different pickups. It's not professional by any stretch of the imagination but it works. Kinda bush-league you might say. And that suits me just fine!

 

Thanks, I'm quite happy with it. It plays really well, still have some grounding issues though. Will have to take care of that next. Not sure how to fix it but I'll search the forum and see what I can find.

 

I have a ground running to the Bigsby but it still hums like crazy. It is really bad. Any other suggestions on how to fix it?

 

Here are a few pics, let me know if they're not good enough (I'll post a few more). I took the entire system out of another guitar and put it in as it was. The ground goes from the jack to the Bigsby.

I don't know much about how this stuff works so this could be a total disaster for all I know! Tell me what you think and thanks for your help! Whatever you're getting paid is not enough.
