...just back from Hans who clear coated it for me. It had never been clear coated after I did the artwork and was picking up colour hints from the case lining!!

I whacked a new bridge on it and painted the output sockety thing and screw heads white as well...

Locking tuners.

So... no other current mods. Oh, but an awful ground hum somewhere to track down and solve! :roll:

Hee, hee, I remember this one (and the matching robe :D )
Something different for sure. Nice piece of whimsy.

Oh, the rest of the band finally showed up.
They're on the front lawn: http://wadairy.com/sites/default/files/styles/large/public/field/image/dairy-farmers-of-washington-cow-breeds-holstein.jpg

Odd, none of 'em plays cow bell.

I got a fever, and the only prescription is more cowbell. . . :D

I finally got around to tracking down the ground hum.

*coughs*

It would appear that in my haste to bolt everything back together again after clear coating, I, ahhh, sort-of, forgot to earth the tone pots.

Job done.

Yeah.... all good now, thanks for asking.

:lol:
