Knob Divet?

[xebryusguitars]

Yeah yeah..i know this is here somewhere but who knows what to call it. I was wondering how to do that whole divet for where the knobs go on a carved top. Like on this prs

Thanks guys

I'm not an expert, but i think you use a round bottom router bit, and either make it perpendicular to the carve, or verticle, so they sit flat.

End Cove Router bit from Sears ($30), mounted in either a plunge router or drill press.
