The hardest part was taking the paint back off for the relic effect after painstakingly trying to get it right in the first place. It plays surprisingly well for a homemade. I had to smoke a cigarette for the first time in 25 years to get the burn marks on the headstock. I'd forgotten how long cigarettes stay with you after you smoke one.
And, here's the back with the reflectors.
Overall, I'm happy with it. It's playable and sounds good.
