Today I got in the Vibramute.  I cannot tell you how excited I am to have it.  Both the Vibramute and the roller bridge are original, new, old stock pieces from the 1960's.  Never installed on a guitar.  Now that I got these final pieces in, I can get back to work.  Next step is to assemble the guitar, measure and drill the mount holes for the tremolo then I can move on into finishing.  Hopefully I'll be able to spend some time on it next week.

Back at it!

The Mosrie has been on hold awaiting both funds and the Vibramute. This week I ordere both the Kluson Deluxe tuners from TonePros as well as the Vibramute. Once the Vibramute arrives, I can assemble the guitar, measure, mark and drill for the bridge and Vibramute placement. Then it's on to the sunburst finish.

Today I made the jig needed to hold the body and neck to the rotisserie style painting support.
