John,
Not sure if anyone else pointed this out but I saw where you "Super glued" everything in place. Did you use CA (Super glue) to glue the rosette in the top? If so, did you paint the cavity FIRST with shellac or lacquer BEFORE you glued it in with CA? If not, you are in for a horrible surprise that maybe I can save you from?

IF you used CA on the top, everything looks fine... for now. However, after you put a finish on the guitar and after a few weeks it will develop a lime yellow glow all around the rosette. Don't ask how I know!
