I wouldn't try to buy online, I'm not saying you can't find good wood there, but I've always found it nice to go to a local lumber place and look through the wood myself to find a just the right piece for the build.

Given the shape and available room on the explorer, they might be a-holes. I'm not sure you really want to go there.

Each to their own, but not for me this one. And I love f holes, but not a holes.

dude, if you cut an f-hole styled letter "A" hole in a guitar, it'd be awesome. A real classic joke for anyone who knows the geetar terminology.
