That is a fun project! I always have been a bit afraid of the plate carving
Re: Something different with strings
I carved a few Les Paul tops. It is a lot of effort to get it right and nice.

Where i am now. A rather bad purfling job. Not easy cutting purfling channels in maple by hand.
I may start over with a new back. Not so bad its given me practice.
