Thanks for your support and advice Cork, much appreciated. Yes, the wiring is not completed as yet and will be secured to avoid any wandering around and rattling. Your pics seem to show a much nicer grain and figure in the body which would have been a shame to stain black like I did, mine was very patchy and the black tended to even it out somewhat. Still, for the price the kit came out ok provided expectations were suitably adjusted as it progressed. With all the thinking time and problem solving required the satisfaction per $ ratio came out reasonably high :rolleyes:.

Without a photo of yours pre-stained I can't comment on comparisons. Mine had hard and soft grain lines on the top (see blue X's in photo) creating a challenge when attempting to sand flat. I agree re your comment "satisfaction per $ ratio", I enjoyed the trip and am considering doing another resonator some time. Before that it's just about time to assemble a 12 string Tele at hand for the long suffering wife.
