Hi and 53 Les Paul.

[Claus Holm Jensen]

 Hi fellow knights of the frets, one happy dude (me), with the 53 Les Paul, it started out in my hands with 2 fullsize humbuckers, and no bigsby..A full restoration was done, got 100+ pictures of you guys are interested :)

100 plus pictures would be a lot for this site but most of us LOVE pictures. Do you have somewhere we can link to them?

I have gone through all the pic's and shaved it down to under 100, but have only really got dropbox..

Hmmm thinking

Claus,

 Maybe it's time to learn to blog, what with the number of pictures and the hint of doing relic work?  I'm not an "electric guy" but I really appreciate a go guitar restoration. I like what you posted and I'm sure that others will too. You don't need to post all 100 but you can continue to post highlights of the process. 

Personally, I'm not so crazy about the idea of anyone opening up their drop box in such a general way. I've used it to share work projects with a few people but I'm not completely clear on how much security your account will give up to open up part of it to that extent.  I don't have accounts on any of the "social" media or pictures sites so I'm not qualified to make any recommendation there either. Some of the other  Frets citizens have experience and may have suggestions for you. 

In the mean time, I like the work you posted!
