hmm looks like no one is interested lol...oh well...

I routed the body this arvo. Havent done the neck and pup rout cos i havent got my template yet. It turned out pretty good today. Way better than my first build!!

Ill hopefully rout the truss rod tomorrow and stick the fb on. I will order a radius sanding block this weekend i guess so i can slot the board next week... Anyway here's a couple of pics of the body..
