You get a bit of an idea looking at this pic but once I start sanding it's really gonna come to life hopefully.
yeah can see some nice quilting bro. Another bonus is no veneers required on an archtop would be pretty difficult.
Looks like the Barge and Woks show is back on air !

Soooo much easier not having to deal with thin veneers. Looks like it is Wokks;-)

So what colour stain you got in mind bro ?

with the amount of work you put in Barge, you might as well do scratch bodies.

Aw yeah. Love the concept.
'As long as there's, you know, sex and drugs, I can do without the rock and roll.'
Actually, it isnt a member of the Acer (Maple) family.
Bit hard to tell untill you sand it, but my guess is that chunk of tasty tree is probably Flindersia pimenteliana (common name Maple Silkwood or Rose Silkwood.
The most likely possibility is Flindersia brayleyana (common name QLD maple or maple silkwood).
There are 17 trees in the Flindersia family, all are native to the Moluccan, New Guinea and Australia regions.
There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....
