If you want to email them to me I will put them up. Is this the one that had the centre section replaced as part of the conversion? (Think I am getting confused becayse I remembered it was a 3-piece top

i think I will go for a bigger belly on mine, although it does highlight that I should avoid a deep recarve and overly dramatic shaping. It's an easy trap to fall into when hand carving the top

I had someone ship me a carved top mapped from an original 56 because they're so bloody difficult to get right, it's to use on a copy carver

I am probably going to kink the main wiring channel slightly so it goes through the pickup routes a bit differently. This way would rule out the 52 style P-90 with corner screws and I want to leave my options open. also, it will have an extra wiring channel going to the tailpiece for grounding the strings - it won't need to be as large as shown here, but its to remind me to do it before gluing the top on
