Strange & wonderful concept guitar with what promises to be a truly stunning finish.
I would have seriously considered customising the headstock shape as well if it was my bespoke guitar.
That young lady has the talent to do justice to this unique instrument IMO.

Thanx
headstock not done yet will also get some veneer love and some carving...tired must sleep now!
hehe!

Looks amazing!

Definitely a 'left of centre' guitar. Ain't no one else going to rock up to a gig with one like that. How are you going to get the wiring between the cavities?

Thanx again gents!

im going to build a special drill bit that can reach from the back where the belt button will fit and drill a small hole right through the centre of the wood an link all the holes with a small hole...should be fun, should get most of it completed ready for an audio test before clearcoat
cheers

the drill bit works great a little small but at least only a small hole to plug on the entry side...

The usual way to approach this is to drill from the neck pocket... Then no need to hide the hole ;)

looks amazing Haydn, can't believe few days ago this was a body blank ! Is the body pine ?
What colour are you staining the sides ?
Yes as DB suggested I'd drill a long hole from the neck pocket to the rear cavities, only way I can see doing it and keeping the hole hidden
