My stuff arrived! Little story on the top wood, for anyone who noticed my posts in the black korina thread. I had originally included a photo of the top that was similar to the one I'd ordered, since I forgot to keep one. Then, I replaced it with a picture of my actual top on order when Warmoth supplied one.

Well, that top failed QA and they had to re-make my body. =( So now the actual top (the one seen here) is in fact the first one I posted in the other thread! They're similar enough that after the cuts and routing I'm happy with the grain and black-and-white figuring that shows. I'm not sure the other top would have looked too different after all.

I'm still waiting on some parts from elsewhere to begin measurements and assembly but my finishing oil arrived yesterday from Crimson Guitar so I'll be starting in on that probably this weekend. I'll most likely make a build thread at that point.

Beautiful. And yes, that black binding looks good. It gives it definition.
