I'm expecting some kind of cataclysmic event, or maybe death, the first time I plug it in and play the finished guitar.

Almost there.

Just wanted to say I love seeing updates on this project, it is a very impressive work given how ambitious the idea was. I'm honestly amazed how well this has turned out so far.

Wait did I go the entire of 2024 without doing anything for this? I must be losing my mind. I'll get on it.
