Well I reached the "I'm scratching my head" point in this build. 100 year plus Cedar on the soundboard and back. Red Cedar framing and ends and sides. I used Holly and Walnut on the Cherry neck so decided to match it at the tone and volume knobs. Sound Holes are my indecision. I am leaning to a traditional sound hole as in a regular guitar. Neck will block part of that and be visible. But that also gives you a chance to embellish on the visible part of the neck. F Holes possibly. I'm tired of doing round sound hole pairs. I milled all the wood in this Guitar. I did want it to look old, but I do love gold bling, the tuners will be gold also. 4 String.
