Sweet!
How deep does the bocote go into the body?

That one was my favorite of the two you were building. Great job! That's a guitar I wouldn't mind owning.

Thanks Alex!
This one goes to my uncle in North Carolina.
He's a blue grass picker and plays a couple of gigs every week.
He had an SG many years ago and told me he wished he still had it.

Very nice! How close are those bridges on intonation? Very clean look.

Intonation is good.
I have light strings on it.

I always thought the SG looked best in red mahogany finish. But not any more
