So my guitar has now arrived so I guess it's time to start one of these.
I am sadly a bit underwhelmed. Having seen so many spalted veneers, not to mention the one shown in the ad, I can't help but feel a bit short changed by the top of this one.

Don't get me wrong, I do think that it will still make a beautiful guitar, if I do my bit properly, and I do love the feel of the wood (I need to stop stroking it before I get it irredeemably greasy ), but I was hoping for a bit more contrast in the grain.
All that aside I now need to make a proper plan of action, as having opened the box I suddenly feel a bit overwhelmed with the task ahead. I'm not sure that I'm going to be in a position to do any more of these, so this one needs to be right first time.
So that'll do for now, my barrage of questions will start below.
