Personally I think the black pickups look great.

Genuinely excited to see your finished guitar mate, well done

Thanks @cheesewhisk!
Come on man! just do it, Before I built my first guitars, I could hardly drill a hole in a wall :-)

Every time @markbailey says 'be careful not to...' that's always where I end up 🤣 🤣

😀

I'm doing some intensive catch-up reading here, so just read through the thread from start to finish.  Great to read the thought process before and during the build, and then see the thoughts being made real in the guitar.  Also seemed to happen really quickly - but then I'm a fast reader.

🤣

Nice work Koen.  How happy with it are you?

It would look even better with zebra pickups. 🤘😁🤘🎸

Excellenté @koendb. What happened to the Zebras? 

@Russ They are for another build ( I think ) , The current pickups are just in there to test and will probably be replaced with Iron Gear pickups when we can order them again from EU.
