So, customer wanted his initials on the back of the headstock and a custom headstock logo (West Virginia) which have been installed. I also got the frets in and will glue up the FB today.

I attached the FB to the neck and roughed out the bridge. I do the final thicknessing and sanding once the neck is attached to the body so I can get the neck angle precise.

Tim your guitar looks great. Love the herringbone on top. Do you have to prebend it before installing?
