It’s Saturday morning, the day is mine, and there will, at the very least, be gluing today.  I think there’s a very strong possibility that I will do this entire design in wood–no shell.  This will solve the balance problem I was concerned about with doing both, but not having them well-integrated in the design.  Should be interesting.  Because the wood itself is so thick compared to shell, I don’t think I’ll be doing it in the headstock veneer as I’d intended, but I picked up a nice thick piece of cocobolo that’ll probably work.  We shall see.
