got some more done in the past couple days. put some 1/4" poplar bindings on the body. Also, I had a spare fretboard in my wood closet from a project I started for myself but haven't finished, so I popped it off and will be using it on this. Got the neck blank glued up, jointed/trued up, cut the profile, and put in the 1/2x1/8" steel reinforcement bar. Now I've got the fretboard clamped and glued, as well as a walnut headstock veneer. Also made a routing template for the mortise and tenon neck joint.
Not sure what color to stain the top yet, the rest will be painted black. Thinking a reddish brown.
