Wow Gollum. That looks like a lot of work for a dremel. Looking good though.

Teeheehee. A dremel

Yes, i'm a hardcore dremel user, well actually i'm just too cheep to borrow a bandsaw (wich i'd advise to do for the nest person trying this)

Ok, to answer the other questions you had - this is the closest pic to how the guitar looks now. It used to look like a strat with a jackson neck/headstock. It was black with a funky gray/green color on half of it.

Currently I still need to pull the brdige pins and graph out the markings for the new brdige spacing (need to double check scale and such). I still need to drill out the cavities for the neck screws so they'll be flush, and I also need to buy screws for that. The wood is still unfinished, and 0% of the wiring has been done. I've been sitting on the project due to car issue. It'll get done this summer, that's for sure. You can find a thred on this project in the luthier section of the forum.
