Hey Alkay, it's quite dark the centre of the top. You could water down a cedar (is this FW cedar as in red colour ?), or maybe a yellow or amber (light brown) stain may work.
Have you got 3 of the bridge/tailpiece bushes knocked in ? Would have been easier to stain without them in !

Also the veneers are usually about 0.6mm thick so don't do any more sanding on the veneer !!
