Apologies for the lack of progress, my EB-2 project has been consuming my time like you would not believe......

But enough sob stories!

Today i scooped out the headstock with a thickness sander!
Image

With a little elbow grease and some 80 grit sandpaper i shaped out the headstock to a reasonable shape
Image

I have also created my own pickguard template and pickup ring template, since ill be making my own pickups
Image

More to come soon!

Cool! Keep on going but don't rush it. This must be an excellent learning experience too, if nothing else. Hope it turns out to your satisfaction Mick ;)
