    Guvna I’ve only myself to blame. I should have take more note of the brittleness of the edges. There is a thin skin applied to the back of this and that is what has caused the issue. It has bubbled in the corner of the control cavity, and it is what is causing the chipping at the edge of the switch cavity.
    I should have just sanded the bugger off and gone “thin line”.

    Is there a veneer on the back? Pretty annoying. At least with a painted one you can sand back and refinish until it's right. Gets old fast though

    Oh FUNK yes....I went through enough of that with the EXA-1. Hence it's back in its box for a while.

    Stuff happens JH, I have plenty enough to work on while I cogitate on the failings of my black guitar finishes thus far.

    This is true, and surely it gives Igor and yourself a bit more time to write tunes for the Conundrum Engine

    Yes, but I'm playing Metal, Blues and Jazz and he's writing polkas and Oompah music. It's very frustrating.

    In a sense I kind of like seeing the expertise of FW and Igor struggling a bit cause it gives the rest of us "it's not just me", feeling.
