Update pics, as promised. I've set up a details page for the kit if anyone needs more info on them. It's at http://www.cncguitarparts.com/kit.html.

A really nice looking design John.

That style of instrument is very appealing.

I really like how the strings flow straight to the tuning machines.

The wood cavity covers and buttons are a nice touch as well.

That is very nice John.

This guitar is also screaming for a cool sunburst too [:Y:]

Thanks guys. I agree about a burst. That would be cool. Maybe someone who builds a kit will do one.

Have you thought about adding an ebony "soundhole"? And a rosette? I think it would look good.
