Getting this electric archtop ready for finish

This is a project that was designed and built by myself and Eric Faggin of Redwood City, CA. It’s inspired by the classic “Les Paul”, but it has some interesting design elements. The Honduran Mahogany body is one solid piece that has been routed out entirely, leaving a 1/2” rim all the way around it with thicker areas at the neck block and tail block locations. The back has been arched and graduated as well as the solid maple top. It is a true hollow-body electric. Excited to begin the finishing process and finally put it together and plug it in. w
