DIY Guitar Talk - Restoring a Vintage Hondo II Les Paul

The guitar is a late 70s/early 80s Hondo II. I picked it up for a great price at Sam Ash (people want the "new" stuff). I spent several days restoring the guitar back to it's original look. To do this I gutted the guitar. I also resanded the fretboard to refresh the radius and installed all new frets. The pickups are Wilkinsons with all new wiring and pots. All new hardware - except the tuners which are in nice shape. She looks and plays great.
