Thanks guys,
I'm so happy with how it looks, the koa is really great. I hope many of you can see it at Woodstock. Its been a long process and stressful- I'm doing lots of stuff for the first time on this guitar. And it still isn't done.
I'm a few days away from having the tuners and pegs functional and installed. Then I can sleep a little better at night.
Ryan, Lots of the old guitars have really small binding, almost square in profile. I love the look and have been slowly making mine smaller on all builds. for this one I went a little further and the addition of the maple line on the bottom makes it look smaller still. I think, though, that it fits well here. Big binding would look chunky on that small body.
Here is another of the headstock in progress- Working on the landing ledge and how much to curve/chamfer the inner walls.
