    Yes there is!

    Your cavity covers? no screws? magnets again?

    I tell ya what, that carve sets off the firebird shape so well too.
    Very curvy.

    That has finished up as one simply stunning piece.

    It's worth owning just to look at.

    I pictured guitar builders all around the world looking very close at the photos of Stu firebird build trying to work out how it was reversed for right handers.

    Andy- I spray with the gat hanging vertically and two hooks through the tuner holes and into the workshop ceiling.

    Floody- Cavity covers on the back are indeed using magnets too. I chamfer or
    flatten back a small section on the corner of a cover to create a pivot point so you can push down and the lid will flip upwards. Works easy, no ugly lip required for access.

    Pics. of the fretslotter when I've got time to.

    BTW. The reason I posted this build thread in quick succession and not in bits and pieces was to stop mindless hijacks/chatter and make the thread flow better for those that want to read it. Come on guys.
    Let's not pollute it at this point please.

    G has mentioned about doing a youtube vid some time down the track to showcase it's sound and playability.

    Finished pics are up on the website. Just need to clear some space then get into that fretsled thread, Floody.
