Today I got my Kerfed Lining Glued in and didn't end up making too much of a mess of it. Overall happy with the way it turned out. Also Sanded the insides with some 220 grit .
Do you all recommend that I glue in the side braces or leave it be as is? I read somewhere that the reverse kerfed linings adds much more support to the sides than the traditional style. But I'm not sure and would appreciate some input on this.

Laid the back on just to see how it was going to look. Pretty happy with it!

I also rough cut out my fret board and bridge. I already know some of you will disagree with my choice of wood for this but I saw where Gibson was using some Black Walnut for one of the fret boards on one of their acoustics so that's what I decided to go with. I have plenty so that saves me some money.
