Finished my SRV tribute Guitar (#2)

I made a funky SRV tribute awhile back, and decided to assemble somethoing less funky.
I put this together fairly economically. 125.00 for the body( MIM) , 100.00 for the USACG neck. Tuners I had, but I also upgraded the bridge to a 35.00 steel GFS block( a must!). The pickguard I had is loaded with some cheap funky old ceramics i also had , basically unpotted and very microphonic( you can sing through them!), but they sound cool.
Total cost was around 250.00( plus 7.99 for the decal. I might get a real SRV gaurd if I keep the guitar.
( this was a parts guitar i showed with a maple neck just recently.THis ones staying like it is as long as its mine). Plays surprisingly good. A lot of fun to play and sounds delightful!
I'm looking for some cheap MIM gold saddles ;-)
EDITED_ NEW PICS;

Nice.
Now relic it!
(Naturally...play the life out of it for about 20 years).

just wondering that i'm seeing this right: you put a warmoth decal on a usacg neck?

i find microphonic pickups to be fun. my buddy who builds pickups thinks i'm nuts cause i ask him to dip mine for half the time he normally does. to me it's the special fairy dust that sprinkles on my tone.

+1.

I'm figuring Tommy is not happy right about now.

Very cool guitar.

Now you need to reverse the bridge.
