I am very happy with colour and finish on it .
Tbh , I didn't expect it to be that good ,as it is second guitar I have sprayed .
Though I did ask quite a few questions as well as read loads of other similar threads .
The fretboard forums rocks
Then there is a custom made neck plate too , which is going to get laser engraving on it .
Hopefully this will do the grounding trick , as soldering it together is out of question.
I was thinking of using conducive epoxy ( silver epoxy ) , but the price of it put me right off !

Few photos of the progress
The ones with short knurling on , are the original graphtech , and other ones are made to suit oversized holes (12.5mm )
Hopefully next week or so .
Here is the overdone design with my forum logo

I have to say , I am not huge fan of it on guitar , though it does prevent finish from becoming a mess .
Despite this being old budget guitar with shoddy plywood and plague of issues , it actually is by far the most resonating one I have come across .
When I played it yesterday for a bit , I thought I had turned reverb knob on amp a bit more than usual .
Turned out it was guitar itself !
I think it proves , that it is not necessary expensive wood or brand , that makes it resonating well .
Just that the back is very thick and the air space is very thin compared to a 335 .
