@Andrew
Thanks mate.

@OliSam
Hey Sam, it's the first guitar that I have owned that isn't the standard 42mm. That and the longer 650mm scale length means I'm still trying to get used to it.

@Fred
Thank you very much Fred.

It's actually 3 strips of ply. I could have used only one and used more pine but I thought that the extra marine ply would add some structural beef to it. Time will tell.

Thanks guys
