			Gobs o' lovelies, I dig it!
Beware, tho. Under a fluorescent light the mint guard will make the body look pink, or so I've been told.

			I can never decided if I like mint. That's about as nice as it gets though. The Mustang bridge looks classy with the mint, too.

Haha... not going to go that far... 
pleased everyone has taken a liking to it... it's about as good as I'd hoped it would look.

I plan on building this guitar as well.

Nice guitars... yeh it would certainly be my fav colour combo for a strat.. while I was placing the guard on there it coincidentally remind me a lot of the supersonic which I too also used to own...

			Glad you like it Owen, i'm quite surprised how much better it looks in the flesh so to speak. Definitely classy.

			That Jag with the mint guard is simply delightful. I never have been a huge fan of mint, but I may just have been converted 
  
And, hey Chris

Must be a winning combo...
