I’ll take some glamour shots in the coming days but here’s a teaser:

That looks amazing. The pinstriping on the pickguard is a nice touch.

Nice, but a ‘69 Thinline wouldn’t have had rosewood.
If only my playing reflected my 60+ years of playing...

Oh wow, that paint job is spectacular, and the pick-guard looks amazing! What an absolute beauty.
