I'm not happy with the shiny finish, so I am going to steel wool this and see how that does, and then perhaps apply a mat finish coat. this pick shows the veneer strips that I used to give it a little more charactor and cover some of the flaws on the box.

Thanks, Matt! I have a great woodworking shot down the road from me and they have an amazing selection of veneer and just about every wood type that you can imagine! When I saw the veneer strips that they sold for about a quarter a foot, I scooped some up.... the bridge should cover that seam, so I am not too worried about it..... I'll shoot some better pics of it when it is finished so folks can see the side of the box where the veneer shows the most. Thanks again for your encouragement!
