Cool stuff Jimmy!
I dig the angle-jointed top.
I did that once - it took me three tries to get it right.
Is that a Maple top?

Yeah it's maple. I've had that top forever and opportunity finally struck to use.

Just use the pencil line method to line up your tops, makes it really simple.

Finished pics!

Will record a sound clip later on. A lot of people questioned my new scale length, but comparing my scale length chromatically up the neck versus my telecaster and PRS, you can see where mine isn't going flat or sharp nearly as bad as the other guitars do. On the G string (the hardest one to get to play in tune) it is PERFECTLY in tune along the neck. I also put some luminlay dots into the ebony knob controls, volumes are blue, tone is green. There is a light relic job on the guitar, I didn't go too extreme, but it does look moderately played. I really like it.

Nice looking stuff. I like that black and white neck...what is the wood?

Thanks Tony! That wood is called ziricote. It's some of my favorite wood to use, is easy to work, and looks gorgeous, but it is toxic to me, others dont have a problem with it, but it irritates my skin like crazy.
