    That's looking really cool! Im glad it was fibre optics you used, and not Christmas lights on sale from Bunnings!
    That truss rod cover is very different - awesome design!

    Funny guy, Swanny.... As if I would buy stuff from the BGSFOS!!
    I would have to banish myself to the Naughty Warehouse for a lifetime sentence

    If I was to go fibre optics again I would use a smaller diameter optic fibre.
    Had to rout channels 3mm deep into the Finger Board to get the buggers to sit correctly.
    Lucky I have a tendency to use rather thick chunks of tree for my FB's...

    There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....
