Here's a few update pictures of the binding on. I'm really liking that bloodwood. I was a little worried that it might be tough to bend, but so far I have not had an issue with it. And it scrapes up nicely, and I really like the contrast with the EIR.
The box has that nice drum tap tone that I look for at this point.
Next, on to the neck.
