She found a few spots that need attention, so I'll fix them and then sand with 1200 grit... I wet the wood to raise the grain after the first 400 pass. I'll probably do that again after the 1200, then do another 400 and 1200 to take off the fur.

Here's a close up of the heel joining the body



I went with the curved back plate so I could bevel the part where you grip the neck for higher notes.



My strat has a square edge there, so my hand comes up against that corner, making reaching the top frets difficult.

I like how the lines intersect
