it's cool that we're all here awaiting and hoping for her to get back kicking @sses! like parents in the waiting room waiting for the surgeon to tell them about their daughter under surgery. keep on the great work man! we're praying for her!

ps: i'd keep the logo as it is, ok it's scratched but not too much and it looks cool. or i'd wait stripping it down until i've got the exact PMC logo replica in my hands. please don't strip it until that moment.

It's getting better and better. Good work!

Hi Wil, since you ask so nicely I'll see what I can do

ok, not much to report this time. The guitar is stripped and I started applying the sealer. The wood is so dry that the first coat was completely soaked and it looked like theres no sealer on it at all.
The big thing this week is the neck. I started cleaning it. Here is a picture of the first 2 frets so you will see the difference and understand the "magnitude" of the task.

Your board looks more like Rosewood than Maple :P

What is with the spat of people buying mongel Jems and UV's to restore at the moment?!
I mean 7DyingTrees bought one of the more hidious PAW's ive ever seen, and there was that PAW that was compleatly molested for sale either here or on ss.org...

Anyway whatever, that crap asside i dig your commitment man its a lot of fun taking a beat up guitar and working it into a playable and if possible eye catching machine of doom.

Yea I think that would help lots of people, like me ;P, learn how to setup guitars and stuff properly.

well this is kind of a photographed documentary
Not a very detailed one since I can't stop and take pictures every second but if you have any questions I'll be happy to answer the best I can.

Plus you can find a ton of info on the tech section.
