Wow. You probably shaved half a pound off that guitar's weight when you reworked that baby.

Was that from an old Steve McQueen horror movie “the Blob” maybe you better pack that up in space capsule and shoot it into the cold deepest part of Antarctica.
Edit-Further consultation may be needed-it is guitar related. It may need to go to the north pole. Phasing, hum cancellation… this may warrant a call on the special phone with the secure line straight to Dan Erlewine!

Looks like it has reproduced!
I'm glad to see I'm not the only one around here who knows how to solder stuff

I fail to see the issue...
Just kidding. I recently opened up one of my early parts guitars I made when I was first learning to solder. It was horrifying.

Why did that bring the Terminator movies to mind? Perhaps because it can flow into a different form. (Or so we hope 
).

When I worked in electronic assembly, those of us on the factory floor claimed that when engineers picked up a soldering iron, their philosophy was “the bigger the glob, the better the job.”
You got yo’ self a engineer-built prototype there!

My shop teacher called that bubblegum ... as in the gum stuck under the desk, chair, whatever. Great example!
...she couldn't solder worth a hoot.

I once had an amp that a “tech” worked on but the problem wasn’t resolved. I dug in and found three cold solder joints and a solder glob that looked a lot like your pic.
