    Really nice to see that your not using a bunch of million dollar tools and stuff to build this kit...really helps inspire people to believe that this can be done with a minimal investment in tools and supplies and still achieve great results!!!

      Hi Eric, Thanks. That was kind of my goal with this review/build, just build it with what the average person ordering a kit would have access to. Even with the upgrades I do on it later, I will keep that theme alive. Gonna be announcing a special pickup deal once that time comes as well!

    Nice job! I am currently working with their firebird 3 pickup kit. It had a few issues I had to fix but overall not terrible. The veneer had some gaps where it met the raised part of the firebird top that I had to fill and sand. Since I am doing a solid color it is not as big a deal but if I had planned on a transparent color it would have been a big issue. I went with heather poly nitrocellulose lacquer (not cheap) and am working on clear coats now.
