I had a lot of fun bringing this one to Guitar Center yesterday to show it off and pick out a case. It was a tight fit at the widest part of the body, but it will do for now.
 
Here's some additional photos of my guitar. This project has a fire theme, which connects to one of my other hobbies of growing hot peppers. The stain is meant to look like flames and if you see it in the sunlight it changes from red to orange with yellow highlights on the edge of the wood grain. I didn't use any grain filler which enhances the effect. The white specks you see see in some of the photos is the ultra-fine glitter that I mixed with the stain. The neckplate and truss cover were both done by DangerousR6 - the plate is a fire-breathing tribal dragon that I drew and the truss cover is a flame design with the name of the guitar "Habanero". There's no photos of the whole back yet because I already got a big scratch near the neckplate and I had to take off the control cavity cover to finish the wiring.
