Been tinkering with this one for a while and finally got around to starting a build diary.
Pics of front and back dampened with gum turpentine.

Flame top is really nice and have only found a couple of small glue spots. Speaking of glue, unfortunately some has run along the back of the body inside the bass side f-hole. Haven't tried to remove it yet, just hope it hasn't stained the timber too much. Still scratching my head as to why someone at the factory would put a pencil thru both f-holes and mark (sign?) the back of the body.

These are minor annoyances and the kit is far too nice to even think about sending back.
