I take it all back... The bottom one looks cool... Rear Route helps for the modern look... Are you cutting and shaping the body back to the saddle plate? I get odds n sods, stainless bridge screws n stuff from Spaldings Fasters of the 'bay...

Nice looking body wood... With the cheap tuners... a dab of coppa slip on the worms and a good twist to remove any plating flashing and get a bit of 'conforming mesh' with the wheel... or wire wool if ya can be arsed to dismantle them... then a clean and dab of vaseline... surprisingly smooths things up for not a lot of effort... Blue or Blueberry-Burst?

Mmmm... I'm alrightish with the headstock... more so than headless and overhanging tuners... Back looks real nice, presume front is similar with the contrasting woods on the neck thru... I'd re profile the headstock, curving the sides, and at the hook on the side... with a 'bottle opener' look... to mimic the edges and 'bottle opener' hook at the top on a Rick... Homage and Lineage... Maybe have a go before lopping it's head off? Headless is OK on modern stuff, but would be a shame with that body n neck. Just my 2p

How about a bit of 0.6 veneer down the edges... or all the way around the heel and sides, should snug it up. -
Best of everything... Plain Fretboard Dot Indicators for 3 5 7 9 12 etc for position... And lines where the fret would be... Play on the lines...

Same with the SR's and the Vox-Amp type plugs... make a short 12" plug to socket lead and then fix the Tx to the strap... a lot less likely to get a knock and broken...

Stand alone compressor pedal that is a battery operated?

You can put it back to 'normal' by downloading the latest firmware v2.1... https://zoomcorp.com/documents/102/MS-60B_v2.10_Win_E_0.zip Might not be able to restore the firmware in ToneLib or Zoom GuitarLab as it will see the existing loaded firmware on connection... -
