This is my best build to date for sure. Its FFs Stutter Trem. Decal and envirotex went down perfect, the paint is much more metallic in person. I had the wiring all nice and bundled up and then I mixed two of them up and had to undo it all anyways :roll: It is so much fun, i love this thing.

I agree with guitarmageddon! I also like how the 3PDTs are different heights corresponding to the graphic.

Awesome!


By the way, I put those holes in the layout so you could use the nylon/sticky-backed standoffs. :wink:

Thanks everyone.

CJ, I like the standoff holes, I bought a big bag of them and they turned out to be super tall and dont fit in anything, and i havent got around to getting any more yet. :roll:

They don't always work out (fit-wise), but I figured I'd add the holes just in case.

+1

It's the little things that make abig difference and show that a lot of thought went into it. A brilliant graphic!

Thanks everyone for the compliments, but I have a confession: The switch placement was a result of me forgetting to drill the hole for the momentary switch. I had everything else drilled and went, "Oh, crap". :oops: So that was really the only spot I could put it. Normally I like to have the momentary on the right hand side, and the latching on the left. The graphic came after, and I admit does match pretty nicely to the layout.
