Not your best work. Thats sat on the stand here next to my desk - but a close second
And I too love the surfboard truss rod cover!

Re: Number 32
I didn't consider how visible the switch would be...its a gibson style long switch (as noted from an SG harness) so its a bit obvious in the F hole.
Anyone have an opinion on the mini knobs? again driven by the harness and F-hole...full size ones sat too close.
O the joys of constant prototypes!

Not in love with mini knobs, like JB, I like them with a bit of girth, I prefer gibson speed knobs to the old top hat style.

painting it black is a good idea....to rotate it Id have to re do the harness soldering ...and soldering is not my strong point.
Ill give that a go.

You're entitled to your opinion, however misguided and incorrect.

Re: Number 32
well maybe not Paradise by the Dashboard light, but 1 minute with a black sharpie certainly made the switch less obvious!
