Missing from the original guitar. So created a new one. Shaped to look like the original washburn head. Truss rod cover made from "LTD Edition" inlay on original fretboard and the surrounding rosewood.

Original top used. Was cut and rejoined and made to shape. Still a lot of the original dents and marks in it. Binding is the orignal plastic binding. Unfortunately i couldnt save enough to bind the back.

Too kind AndyJr. I'm overwhelmed that it actually worked! am very tempted to try ukuleles with smaller bodied broken instruments too. Also, for a laminate bodied instrument, it sounds wonderful. Will probably keep it as a prototype, but may sell. If anyone is in or around the South East, Kent and London, come by and check it out.
