TALP 01

This body showed up a bit earlier than expected, due to multi-day lag on tracking updates for orders from China. The neck I ordered the same day hasn't had an update since 'flight departed' seven days ago, but it could get here any day now. The wiring drilling is a bit disappointing, and will need improvement, and there was a dent in back that I was only mostly able to steam out, but the mahogany's otherwise nice enough that I'll save my supply of tamo ash and only veneer the front, once I soften and flatten both rather wavy halves. Finish progress will be delayed, as there are things I need to get on payday to even start coloring anything, as well as needing batteries for my good camera, so veneer-wrangling is pretty much all I have to do for one week.
