Sure thing Jeff, we'll throw in an on/off switch for the Dubly while we're at it.

Captured in spray, after prepping:
 

 
Can't see the colors too well through the sanded paint surface, but it sure is purdy!

I heard you were concerned about the existence of your back laminate. This picture should put your mind at ease:  

  As for the inlay, your positioning closed all discussion about placement - there's only once choice!  

  Here's another with the functions labelled:  

  We used the standard back routing program for the basic layout. Sounds funny, but the holes are part of hte back layout program.  This saves a bunch of time, and allows you to use standard wiring lengths in most of the circuit.

mica i am more at ease than after eating 6 quaaludes
ty soo much... i should have known better  
lets go with this layout-
lets also use the tailpiece #2 that you presented to gary on his walnut k. i think it's less busy than the bird right near the omega- certainly open to your thoughts-
would like to see the wolf with his ears at app 11 and 1 on a clock(better centering) and closer to the white ring inside the inlay
will send val a set of strings. think i might go with the thomastik flatwounds-
val suggested i do a rip van winkle-  go to sleep!! -call me when its time to pay....
