Tom, the center raw veneer is the entire veneer sheet that gives us the four options. Cheers.

That's gonna be great Jim !
but won't the headstock end up with a hound between its eyes ?
Or might they locate him nearer the centre this one time ?
Or,,, even just on the 12th fret ?! That'd be very cool (IMHO)

I love the combination of the grains in this veneer. It will be great!

Emerald makes such great guitars… but beyond that, I am always happy to recommend them because of what amazing folks they are. Experiences like yours, Jimmy, make it clear how much Irish Aloha they put into their work.
🤙🏽 ♥️ 🇮🇪

I wonder if there is enough extra space on either end of the bridge?

That might look pretty decent!

I think right in the centre of the lower four tuners at the widest part of the headstock, would be better than either of those.
Won't there be a truss rod hole where the lower one is ?
