I can't figure out of the sound hole is right up against the neck joint, or if cutaway and the heel are moved towards the middle of the guitar and the neck made longer - or a bit of both. I need to look at the other pictures again.

Can't count it properly, but I think the neck joins the body at a fret that's higher than 14; this would push the soundhole towards the neck in any case. Looking at the X brace pattern on reply 21 of this thread, it also would appear to put the bridge relatively close to the heel.

Hi X-rated Bob, the guitar has a very deep cutaway almost up to the soundhole and there is an extension of the fretboard to 24 frets.

hi Gearhead, neck joins the body at the 14th. ?

how do you manage to cut that logo by hand ?
the inside of the C seems like a pretty tight fit, nice work ?

No offence but honestly the logo reminds me a bit of the Comedy Central logo.... ?

But then again that logo is going into one of the sexiest guitars I've ever seen..... Who's laughing now ?
But honestly this guitar is looking amazing! The finished product is going to be epic
