I picked up some water slide paper to try and put the headstock logo on. It worked great... or should I say... it was slick? 🙂

The build is coming along. I've got it into the finishing stage. I'm glad I stuck with this build. The amount I have learned is unreal and it is looking really nice. Here are more progress pics. A...

@boo @tyreman @robin @russ @koendb. Thanks for the moral support guys. I'm just glad this one is starting to shape up. For a while I was thinking it was just not meant to be. Now I can't wait to start...

Then, the latest thing I've been working on is the end graft. I decided I wanted to go a little fancier with the end graft. Decided to have it wrap around the bottom of the guitar. I think it is kinda...

Now to work on the arm bevel. I carved and sanded it down with just touch the bwb strip. I made my own curly maple veneer and glued it on. This one looks much cleaner than the one I did for my wifes b...

Finished carving the neck and put it on the body to see how far off my cut away is. I decided to leave the neck the original thickness and repair the body. A lot of extra work but I think it worked ou...

well... it has been a while since I gave an update. I was able to get the twist out of the neck. I believe I still have enough meat on the headstock that there will be no problems. I will be adding a ...

@bpower Good luck I hope it fits the body ok

@rocknroller912 thanks for the input. My experience working with wood makes me believe it would be fine but I like hearing others think the same as me. I will make the volute bigger. I didnt think of ...

@bpower I would say you will be ok but hard to give an opinion without handling the piece. Might leave the volute a bit bigger than you intended.
