Yeah I have a couple of his books and they are really helpful. The customer service is amazing and you can ask him questions and he'll give you a good answer if he knows. There are some good videos that you get access to if you buy the book. He is a professional and has been painting guitars for about 20 years or so i think. Personally, I think it's 30 dollars well spent. Hope I was some help!

Here's just a quick thought on having the pickups not visible. If you take a look at some of those Line 6 Variax guitars they have no pickups visible. I think they use piezo pickups or something. You might want to check that out. I don't know much about piezo's so it might be the totally wrong thing for your guitar. Just an idea. Good Luck! Can't wait to see it when it's done!

I've heard it's best to leave a laqcuer finish cure for about 1-2 months. You probably want to get to the sanding sooner, but if you do, a couple weeks after you've wetsanded and buffed your finish it might get uneven or worse, crack. Aparently Gibson lets it cure up to 6 months. But they're Gibson so... So I'd recommend you let it cure for at least a month or two. I got a book that's all about painting guitar with laquer spraypaint. It's a good buy and if you're thinking of getting into painting guitars with laqcuer it's a really good read. Here's the link : http://www.paintyourownguitar.com/ It's about 30 bucks but it's well worth it. And It has some of the best customer service I've ever had. Hope I've been some help, Good Luck!
