WOW...it looks great! I can't wait to see it assembled.
The headstock looks great with the TRC in place along with the tuners.
It's strange how the paintjob makes the upper horn look more pronounced as compared to the lower. The red stripe running into the upper horn makes it look exaggerated. Or maybe it is just me.
Too bad so much will be hidden by the pickguard, p/u surround and tailpiece

That's pretty trippy. Are you painting the guard too?

It came out really cool Jaymi. I'd like a big hi quality picture of it for my website after it's been strung.
...hey that would be funny if it was color of the year.
JETGLO should officially be renamed JETGLO ROCKS! :-)

I am having a plexi overlay made for the pickguard that will match the body lines. Aside from the pickups and the knobs, bridge etc, the pickguard will look the same as the body so the flag will be continuous.
Mark, when I come to the UK in the new year, I will be playing this bass as a tribute to the British people...That is why I had it done....

More later.
