Wow. I'm in the middle of a W bass build with very similar goals. My inspiration is barnyard or barns in general. I too emphasizing the red and dried-out wood look, see pic. That tele in the previous post is really cool. This is my first W project and it will be hard to screw up. Anyway, I'll post pics tonight in in-progress. Back to your project, good luck. I voted barn-door of course.
