That is looking good. Have you had any more luck with staining?

Thanks! And no I haven't really messed with it anymore for this build but one of the ones coming up after this will have a pretty sweet ocean burst so I'm looking forward to doing that.

I think it's an amazing build, I'm jealous I love that neck man it looks nice and skinny! Imo this would look nice in some sort of fender color (maybe fiesta red?) with a white or pearl pick guard

Well this one is finally done, sorry for the delay but here's what I ended up with






It sounds pretty good even with just guitarfetish pups in it and it feels really good while playing. I'm pretty happy about how it turned out but I cant wait to progress further with the next one. Thanks for looking guys!

Thank you! next time I plan to leave more material where the neck is glued to the body, I went to thin and couldn't get the smooth neck to body transition I wanted. I wont be doing solid colors much any more, so I'm looking forward to experimenting with stains/bursts on nicer woods. Also I will be winding my own pickups for every build now.
