It could still all go horribly wrong...
The Jaguar takes shape. Fitting the neck and coverplates.
Drilling through the nitro finish, and fitting the Jaguar tremolo plate.
There are six holes to drill in the newly polished Jaguar body, so that the chrome tremolo plate can be fitted over the large cutout.
Polishing the Jag.
The urban dictionary has an entirely different meaning - Hmmm. But polishing this Jaguar is actually quite a "Zen" way to spend a dull autumn day.
Time to fit the tuners
Polishing up the headstocks and fitting the tuners - ready for assembly.
Clear coating the Jaguar body
Adding the protective clear coat to the painted body. This should eventually polish up into a lustrous, liquid shine.
More work on the Jaguar neck
There are quite a few processes to run before the neck is ready to go. The decals need sanding flat, and the fingerboard needs oiling.
Prepping and painting the Jag.
It's all in the preparation and approach.
Working on the Jaguar headstock
There's plenty to do. Let's start with some relatively easy stuff. Waterslide decals take me all the way back to the plastic construction kits of my childhood.
Hold the front page. Let’s make things complicated.
Let's get another project up and running. I always find it useful to have, at least, a couple of projects on the go at any one time.
