    You've done well ... and well spotted Andy B.

    That might give you a few extra bucks to play with on other parts ... like your pickups.

    im gonna get some wilkinson zebra pups. i read good reviews about them and being my first guitar, i dont wanna spend big bucks coz i might end up stuffing it. ill prob upgrade later.

    as ive said before, my brother is a printer so im gonna design a logo for the headstock.

    lol i hadnt realised how many pages. im now wondering if i should just give my dad a cad file and get him to cnc the template. they can only do plastic on that machine so i cant do the body but he could a template out of a thick strong plastic.

    once i get the template, work will begin. it should be pretty quick too. im on holidays in a few weeks so ill get it done then

    thats the wood. sorry for the pics. used my phone.
    I cant believe i didnt think about getting him to do the templates until today. I feel like im cheating a bit but. Especially getting him to do the pups and bridge and possibly neck route. but at least it'll guarantee a good finish lol

    well thats what you want man..... a good finished job....

    who cares how you go about it..... the aim is to have something playable
    and in some cases good lookin

    lol

    timber looks alright, knot may be a bit of a problem?
    doesnt look like a bad one from the pics though....
