Mailman came… so whole day building Aircraft whilst it was pissing down and blowing a gale.
The 4ft Cessna makes the Stang look like a midget!

Noice. Mm I see that system, Definitely not fly weather I’ll find out in a couple of days.
Fk it might be wheels up in 5 and send it
Slowly but surely modding my Squier Mustang up to Fender spec.
Ditched the cheap Chinese ceramic single coils and crappy electronics, DiMarzio Alnico V humbuckers coming in for the new HH pearloid pickguard, new Gotoh tuners, Gotoh hardtail bridge, CTS pots and switchcraft selector switch and output jack.
Full copper sheilding in the cavities, although with 'buckers not really necessary. Still, while you’re there, might as well. Some work with a Forstener bit to allow rotation of the selector switch to the vertical, much betterer and more intuitive when you’re playing than the original front to back setup.
The unfinished one piece maple neck’s downstairs drying after getting a couple of coats of clear gloss. A few days to settle then it’s a rub back with 2000 grit wet and dry before final polish. Fretboard edge rolled and frets levelled and polished smoother than a baby’s bum.
Should sound like a beast, and a joy to play and bend notes on with it’s short scale length. Good times!
I better not tell Dad about that, he’d love to get his greasy palms on it
He’s got an Ibanez and one of those Chinese knock offs that he rebuilt.
Good enough for Kurt Cobain, good enough for the old man, Maiphut.
