I'm looking forward to seeing where this goes. Are you going to go the Fenderbird route with the neck? The pocket outline gives that impression but I figured I'd ask. I'm pretty sure it'll sound great no matter which way you decide to build it!

Nice.

Also good to know there's someone out there taking longer to finish projects than me  :P

Cool, post more of this!

Personally I think that maple is quite pretty, not plain at all. I know it's simpler than what people tend to like for natural finish tops, but maybe that's what I like about it.
