For the most part anyway. :-) I still have to paint the trem and jack covers. But other than that... IT'S DONE!!!! WOOOHOO!!!! :-)
Here's a few pictures of it. :-)

There's something totally sexy about 7 strings on a maple fretboard. DRIVES ME WILD!!!!
Gotta thank Jeremy for the awesome work done on the neck. The pictures don't do it justice! Thanks Jer!! :-)
The fretboard is already dirty! I've been playing the hell out of it! haha
I feel kinda sad now that it's finished. :-( It was a blast seeing this project evolve.
Anyways, hope everyone likes it.

Looks like the cat is diggin it too LOL Was that a total custom job or was it a UV777gr re-painted and monkey grip added? I am totally in awe man.

Sweet. The DY finish almost doesn't do justice to those beautiful abalone inlays. Almost.

Sweet guitar, man! Very unique. You and Jeremy will have to get a group shot with your UV777DY and his UV777SK.

I can get this since Alden's to busy playing with his instrument

LOL!!!

It was originally a UV7BK black and green. I pulled the rosewood fretboard off, and built a new maple board, and put the pyramids in. I also sprayed the headstock and put the logo's back on. Alden cut the grip and sprayed the yellow on the body.

It looks amazing dude, I love the neck, I love the whole thing, makes me wanna build one too LOL!!!!!!!!

Whoa... that is just awesome,,, man I had to take a double take! Beautiful man! Sooo where did you get the old school pick ups in red? Or did you paint the originals?

Sooo you restore eh? As I had mentioned in an earlier thread I'm concerned about taking off 5 layers of paint from my UV777GR ( don't want to chance losing the tone ) However, the maple neck is in need of new frets, and I wouldn't be opposed to having it refinished and maybe have the original inlays replaced with bright happy new ones.

That makes me want to start a project of my own.
