Pink Strat Update

The body is done, that was a snap. I shielded everything again. The biggest issue was trying to figure out why the middle pickup would short out when i screwed down the pickguard but not at any other time? Turns out that the connector on the 5-way switch was shorting out on on the shielding, but only when the pickguard was screwed down! Electrical tape solved that problem.

When I went to bolt on the neck to the body I discovered that the holes didn't line up, which apparently is common, so i have doweled the holes and am just waiting a couple of days for the glue to dry before i drill new holes. I also had to shave the pickguard down a little.
