Sounds a bit like I'll be the guinea pig builder around here.

Not ready to start a building log yet, but continuing to plan, and gather parts, etc.
I got a set of MOP block fretboard inlays that are very nice off Ebay and I got them for a song. Looking at humbucker pickups that attach under the finger rest/pick guard. Volume and tone controls, tuning machines, headstock inlays. I ordered some last name logo inlays in MOP from DePaule today. They said up to 7 weeks because of the Chinese New Year.
