The guitar is finished and I couldn't be more pleased with how it sounds and plays! I couldn't find a suitable gotah tuner or correctly sized locking nuts.
Let me know what you guys think =)

$150 for the guitar
about $75 for parts and cleaning
$50 for professional setup.
Total investment: $275

Yep, great job and that is the absolute perfect scratch-plate for that guitar. I couldn't possibly think of anything better. Very tasty.

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.
