I call this my solid body CBG. This is my first try with binding. Dual volume and tone controls are a first for me too.

    Thanks all,

    I'm quite proud of it. Id I can just cure a little buzz if has.

    As for the binding, it was easier than I expected. Of course it's all straight edges. Corners would have given me trouble. But I'd already planned to use the corner plates.

    I used a1/2 inch router bit with a 3/8 bearing guide. If I keep at it I'll buy a proper set of binding bits.
    As for wisdom, measure, measure again and before you route, measure.

    That's a beauty!  Any words of wisdom to share about the binding experience? Thanks!
