    Ive brought a small piece of .5mm quilted veneer one as a test peice and two to make a truss rod cover, what would be the best material to glue it too. I was thinking about a piece of plastic or the back of a piece of laminex with contact glue

    Hi Barnsey, love the quilt, they look like matched book ends. As to you question on the veneer on the truss rod cover, i did the same on my SG-1, used the original plastic cover and used titebond to glue a matching veneer to it.
