yep it stops the strings digging into the wood. I could use another set of Ferrules ( those ones will be on the back) but I want to make something swish. Not unlike the ones on flying Vee's but more in keeping with the shape.

So time to get back onto this one. Spent a morning making a tail piece only to have the template shift resulting in the above stuff up. Oh well, back to it tomorrow, at least I know what i'm doing now..

Things changed.... I got sick of hold ups and decided to go with a conventional string through,1/2 way through doing the frets atm, deciding on if I should change the markers to white.
And it's NOT PINK! it's lilac , actually a 58 Oldsmobile colour. This guitar answers the question no one asked "What would happen if Fender, Dean, Dan Electro and Teisco had an orgy and there was a love child?"

I quite like the colour, but it’s a surprising colour on a Dedman guitar.
It'll go well with the office walls....
Done! at last, really comfortable to play. And despite what Stan says, its LILAC! not pink

Who are you and what have you done with Dedman?
I’ve not come across one of those rocket truss rod covers before, and nice to see chicken heads on another guitar.
