Could afford some time to move on with the project...
Tried out some colored oils...it even could work by taping the part, which has to stay natural, I think. But of course the body wood could react different than the used veneer... The black one is flowing into the wood, but teh other were fine...let's see if I really go for color or take the natural oil version...
Made also the adjustment between neck and body...actually I want it to be even more one shape going into another, but I am not sure if I will take the effort or am skilled enough not to ruin it...atm I like it at least more than the orignial version...
And also tried out the string through body drilling on a piece of wood...seems to work...using a drilling station makes the whole task much easier...I think I will make the ferrules also on the front of the body, so the strings won't cut into the wood when they come out to the bridge...just have to put the ferrules deeper into the wood, so they don't touch the bridge...
