We hashed out the final peghead shape (which really turned out to be more of a tuner placement issue), and we're fixing to cut the fingerboard out in next week's run. Once that's done, we can take the old board off and get down to business.

Thanks Mica and Edwin.... I've had visions of pegheads dancing in my sleep the past few nights. So excited this is actually happening.

Ebony fingerboard? Abalone oval inlays? So many possibilities!

Yes, ebony fingerboard (w/red side LED's) and MOP ovals. I was tempted by abalone wrapped with silver for a kind of fancy, vintage look but it's a bit out of my price range at the moment.
