A few back comfort bevels and cutaway bevels:




Above is a fan fret - note the neck meets the body at an angle.










Couldn't help myself...top comfort bevel.

First thing I though of was a "Reverse" wedge. So the guitar rests on the belly but doesn't tilt out. I'm a very sick man.

that would also keep the neck from being tilted back at a less ergonomic angle.

If this isn't enough belly bevel for you, I can always bump it up on a custom.

i think your guitars are cool, they look inflated (in a good way), especially the electrics. you should do a nylon string acoustic version.
