Thanks! That does bring up another thought...I was going to plan the rear binding seam to be in the very center of the neck pocket. Back binding will be only a single piece. The top binding will be a bit more elaborate.

New member here...hello all! I'm building a Thinline Telecaster with a mahogany body and a maple cap. The piece of mahogany I got for the project might end up being a slight bit too thin after I plane it, so I am considering putting a walnut cap (around .200" thick) on the back. The body will get top and back binding, so all seams will be concealed. Can anyone think of an issue with that idea?
