That would not hurt. I'd suggest making your bracing a little more triangular (thin at the top) you don't loose much strength but that will reduce the weight and increase response -- just a thought.

Not the shoulder brace.

I went with the popsicle brace. Box is closed. Bindings next along with the neck. I reall like the shape of this one, at least visually.

Some more progress. Bound the fretboard and did the inlays. I made the diamonds from padauk cut so the end grain shows. Side markers are from some padauk "toothpicks" I made. Neck carved and tenon created/bolt on style. Head plate and backstrap on. Bridge created from a laminate of Brazilian rosewood and padauk. Test fitted tonight not too bad. Need to do some tweaking.

Nice work on the back strap and the inlays, the guitar is really coming together and looking great.
