I just got very excited about mounting my tuners. So excited that I mounted them on the front of the head stock. Now I have some decorative holes on the face of the headstock.

Finally, a topic I can contribute to! (Ha!)
I cut the bottom end of the first neck too short, then shaped it at about a 45 degree angel. THEN tried to drill the holes for the strings! Now I've got 2 holes and a big chunk missing off the side! Maybe I can cut the end off and not do a neck-thru design on my 2nd build! (yeh, we'll go with that!) :)
