Getting close. Needs top coats, cure, level and polish then assembly and setup. So 6 weeks or so...

Beautiful. Outstanding workmanship. I have a brother in Coral Gables. Can I have him drop off my next build for finishing? I'm curious, what is the scale length? Will you add pickups?

Thanks everyone. Wet sanding and polishing the lacquer takes me 12 to 15 hours (all by hand - no buffing wheel) so I would have to charge you $27,000 to finish your guitar. Sure, glad to help you out. :D

Scale length is 25 11/32"
15 frets to the body
