Thanks everybody. We did this build because my son Jackson has always had limited choices being a southpaw. Just a note to anyone interested. This guitar really rings acoustically, much more than my Gibsons. I put that down to using 24hr epoxy to set the neck. It sets hard not like cheesey PVA glue. I advise anyone doing solid colours to use acrylic urethane or nitrocellulose lacquer. Oil base enamel cannot be coated over without a PHD in paint tech and oil base urethane clear coat is not easy to use. Cheers.
