Thanks...first attempt at a solid body design...the dimensions work but I am still not sure about the piezo pick-up. I potted it in a bottle cap with hot glue, then glued it under the bridge in the neck. Not bad sound, but the next one will have a magnetic pickup. The body is distressed to look like it is well used..pick guard wasn't attached yet, but is now after I did a bit of cosmetic machining...it's an aluminum plate I cut out of a cookie sheet...works good and was easy to cut with sheet metal snips.
