Routing finished
Ooh some new wood supplies courtesy of my wife's grandfathers old workshop
A lovely wide plank of meranti. I can see a few guitar bodies coming out of that!
Inside profiling finished with a section left in for being able to carve a rib cage chamfer on the back of the guitar.
Top cut to shape
Slight split opened up when I pressed the top against the body which was soon glued and filled with sawdust.
Oops nearly forgot to route the wiring channel. Slight mishap when the routers dust exhaust hit the straight edge I was using. It won't be seen but I know it wonky in there...
And glued down...
Quick play to see how the design will look. I plan on making some P90 p'ups rather than the chrome covered humbuckers shown here.
Yep this top is going to look spectacular when it's finished.
Started carving the neck pocket by hand.
Cut the headstock shape out
