The best of it is, I'm a trained cabinet maker so working on it would have been easy. Same goes for the finish, sprayed or French polished... Problem was I had no gear here to do it.

I also had another problem early on that nearly caused the whole lot to be launched out of the window!!! When I was removing the neck PU, the driver slipped and f****d the winding up.... I'm sure I'm not the first or last to do it!!!

So that was it, a rough body, destroyed PU and no tools. After thinking it over I thought I might as well try and get it playable with the least amount of work and probably move it on.

So I found a nice body, got the pickup rewound and much to my surprise it turned out amazingly good.

When I return to England next year, I'll see about putting my skills back to use on a new project:)

Nice!
I am not so sure that you should French polish or shellac (bug shit) electric guitars tho as it wears off so easily from sweat etc.
Shellac is a good sealer tho before lacquering.

I hear ya...once my woodshop is done it is time to make a Jr from scratch

Most likely a 60 or 70. Looks like a 3 piece back.

If I may remove the shroud of mystery, I saw Ryan's Burny on local CL... but not in our classified thread! :shock:
