Aw, man! 😢 I'm sure you'll do a great job and it'll be fine...
My GAS buyer finger is still hovering over a B7 and a Vibramate for the 335, should I? I do instinctively reach for a tremolo these days, been spending too much time with the Jag...

Is that for the sleek, shiny, smart black 335 you bought the other week?
Gilding the lily. Don't do it. -
That would be great!
Keep an eye out for some of the obscure older ones, would be pretty neat to get one that's a bit different!
Did you get the Montypresso for the fingerboard in the end too?
In other semi-hollow type news I may have a trade on for my PRS Santana SE against a Hofner Verythin and I'm crossing my fingers it goes ahead as it's a lovely thing! Headstock and fingerboard inlays are so excellent!

Oh and @>>>>>> why didn't I listen to you and flog the Guild as was?
I started sanding the back (which I thought was already stripped back to near bare wood). As soon as I started sanding two things happened:
1: I realised that my previous efforts at sanding hadn't in fact gone all the way though the finish and I probably could buff it back to gloss to match the sides.
2: The new electric detail sander I bought for the job, left a mess of deep gouges in the back and one spot of bare wood, which immediately made item 1. impossible to revert to. Fuck.
So no I'm committed. Which is a pain in the arse because the sander makes such a fucking racket I can't really do it for long. Even in the garden. I might set up a bench in the shed and head out there with a mask and some earplugs when the weather perks up. FFS.
