So I have begun today the arduous process of refinishing my ESP SC207. Since I am waiting a few weeks for my new DiMarzio's to show up, thought I would make progress shots in this thread to show you as I go!

Here is the first set of coats I did as a test. I primed it by sanding the clear coat off with 320 grit sandpaper up to about 600 grit by hand, then cleaning and wiping down with alcohol

What the finished color will look like (minus the clear coat). A bit darker after I touch it up though.

Going to start the body sometime soon here, will keep you updated through the whole thing!
