The nitro clear top-coat went on same day I was finishing of spraying the RD, which appears to have cured quite well... I just need to create a profiling block for the unusually flat "fret" board and coat with the resin (a-la-Jaco), then sort out the components... the Ovation tuners I acquired from Brad, the low-profile bridge from Dave, the EMG Select humbucker that used to live in the PC, a pair of Jazz pups from my Squier (replaced by a set from Scott's modern Jazz), merged as one in the bridge slot, pup switch, mini for phasing or DI, and a volume control for good measure... not sure about a TRC as yet...
