Always did love your stuff, Doner.  In fact I think I found Audere because of one of your builds.  This is beautiful, man.

Details on the pickup(s)?  Don't think I've ever seen anything like that.  How does it sound?

Cool, I like the oil and wax look. Is it a particular type of paste wax you use ?

That's a sweet looking thump-stik! :bananaguitar:

That looks good! Nice choice on the top. Very cool pickup(s). It has to sound great.

Very nicely done, and beautiful to boot! Helluva lotta controls for one pickup, though  :laughing7:
