Got a load more of this done today. First up was soldering all of the electrical components into place, somthing i don't really like doing, and don't have much confidence in doing, but i figured the worst that could happen if i screw it up is that i admit defeat, spend a few more quid on some more pots, ect, and ask somebody else to do it for me. I t did seem to go ok, so i hope all is well.
With all the electrics in place, i could then re-fit the pickguard and fit the Gotoh bridge and knobs. Unfortunatly the screws that came with the pick-ups are too short, so i couldn't get them in today, but that shouldn't be too much of a drama. All that's left to do then is fit a new nut, a rosewood tug bar and string her up with some flats, although i am toying with the idea of adding a pick-up cover. I will also want to get the fret edges filled back when funds allow.
Anyway, here's a few more pics of how she's looking. I reckon she's pretty cool for an Encore and can't wait to see what she sounds like.
