phase one of my custom pick guard for my model III

i'll go around all but the pickup cut-outs with a binding I've been saving, then stain it with stewmac's vintage amber liquid stain. then give it several coats of something hard- probably a polyurethane or something similar.

Lookin' good!

I've gotmy binding bent. now it's time to see how close I can match the "blonde" on the top of my III. then after I stain, I glue up the binding, sand to thickness (from the back of the pickguard), then clear coat. [/URL][/IMG]
