Hi all, Just looking to pick some of your brains. i've got a Guild Body and neck that i've had for quite a few years that were never finished at the
factory (They were pulled in 2004 / 5 when Fender decided to stop the SoCal operations and move them to Washington). The problem is the body was never routed for the neck, the pickup holes, etc. I've searched around for a Luthier to help finish it up but have been unable to find anyone that can do the work, they say they don't have a jig for it. Does anyone have a contact in the SoCal area that might be able to do Guild work? Or is this a lost cause?

Welcome! I can't help, but I'd love to see pics. How'd you score these pieces? Sounds like a cool project.

I've uploaded a few images. So my buddy used to work at Fender and was part of the group of people that dismantled the machinery before being sent. Since they were short on room they were going to toss the spare pieces.
