So my previous guitar builds have been very metal-focused. I thought I'd change it up a little with some single coil configuration.

For me, the most interesting part of this build was using the UV-cured Clean Armor coatings. I've been chasing for the durability of production guitars without the health hazards of volatile solvents or the need of a mercury UV lamp, and I think Clean Armor is the solution for me, at least for gloss.
