This thing still needs much filling and sanding.It should take me all summer between this and another strat I'm working on and the red Epi hollow I have a full plate.And that metallic almond hollow body still needs cosmetics work.

Fuck redoing the routing- if you can't see it, whats the point? A few extra cubic inches of wood ain't gonna make a difference to the TONEZ.

Liez! wood = tunez! stupido! However, if you really want those elusive t0neZ you need to fill it with concrete.
