Bit of a backwards step today at first, whilst rubbing back the coat of oil, a scar in the wood was spotted - looks like I did it on one of the hangers when I hadn't filed down the hook enough so it was a bit of a battle, so that was duly steamed out before any more progress could happen, it's currently on it's 4th coat now and looking great. Interestingly, the ash on the rear takes more of a shine than the maple cap... to be honest I quite like the effect! Got some more coats to go still, but it's getting closer by the day!

Cheers guys :) Gave it a setup yesterday and gigged it, even without an amp and straight into the desk it sounded mega. Not bad for a backup I guess! Right... onto the next project!

Probably due to high standards mixed with getting an amazing deal. The Infinity is in dock at the moment having some bits it needs doing done, gigged this one the last two nights and it can certainly hold a candle to the Infinity. This one is the one I'd be taking abroad and such though as its much more replaceable if / when airlines smash it.
