Planning stages of the next guitar. I joined 2 more pieces of the poplar I used for LC001, but when I planed them flat, I was left with a pretty thin body blank. 1.56" or so. I need 1.75 finished to fit the cavities and controls for the S type body. So i ordered a top to glue on to the poplar. It's Birdseye Maple.

I'm not going to fuck with the flame shaped head on this one... probably. I have Birdseye maple fingerboards to go with this top, so it might look cool. Thinking of doing a Strat type body, but with Telecaster pickups..... I'm not quite sure yet.
