Nice headstock rick XD
Here's the blue with a coat of clear, it's not buffed or anything but it shows the pop better
Made ebony bridge support, drilled depth holes for top and back contour in the background you can see, drew on pickup locations, neck cut out and bridge points on top.
Now I made the choice to put a cavity plate on this guitar just because of huge thick neck joint it'd be impossible to install electronics the "typical" hollowbody way through f-holes or pickup cavities.
I decided on a matching same piece cavity cover, meaning I cut it from the actual back wood. This is done by drilling a series of very very small holes, inserting the scrollsaw blade, reattaching the blade and LETTIN HER RIP. The problem is you CAN'T mess up anything or else the piece is scrapped.
I did this free hand luckily it turned out pretty much perfect, with a little sanding the distance all around should be uniform!
that's it for tonight =] take care - Josh
