    After almost a week of a very sharp learning curve and a hard week away in my new job, sitting in my truck and looking at that makes every mile worth it.

    Thank you Jonathan.

    That's blown my mind.

    No new pics - the two we have are being stipped and readied for finishing - one is having a paint finish and the other an oil and stain finish.
    We are getting some single ply tortoise shell pickguard material to make the pickguards.

    So this is how they looked before stripping:

    Tom's been busy making some pickguards for theis Epiphone Everley Brothers guitar.

    The old printed torty plate was buckled and looked a bit cheap and fake

    The new ones came out well and have the appearance of old school torty plates

    Looks great! We did some pearloid ones similar to this recently as well, the buckling seems a common problem.

    No - we hope to use proper cellulose nitrate on the juniors, but that wasn't available in big enough sizes, so we used cellulose acetate from Rothko and Frost
