Looks great, remember in our line of work invisible is in the eyes of the beholder. Thats why I work with my eyes closed or if I am using the belt sander I will open them up real wide and squint
In truth it looks great, I did a few shattered tops last year on classicals that were not retopped for customer sentimentalities and money issues. They came out much better than I thought they would and sounded great.
