Should I tint the body blue, or leave it classic?

well, I havent updated in a while, but that's b/c I've been working (and playing) so hard... she's finally good and strung out! I'll try to post up some progress and final pics at some point tomorrow (busy day ahead), but she sounds and looks great in my opinion. Definitely a custom job, never find another like this one anywhere. I even made a custom coil splitter for each individual tbh (twinblade humbucker) which looks pretty cool and gives me infinite sound options, and these sounds compliment my amp perfectly. I have a 2-12 Line 6 spider III celestion amp, lots of power, way too loud (not!).

Looks nice!! I wouldn't have thought that the blue would look so good. Kinda like blue wood stain just got splashed on it. Nice work. Mike
Even though I work on Dodges, I don't own one.

Thanks, Mike! It definitely took a long time, and I think it was worth is... Just realized that I need to make a truss rod adjustment and then readjust the bridge height and and spring tension, then retune....
