The weekend offered a wee bit of time to work on this project - amongst all of the grass cutting that was greatly needed. So here's what I've done: I know I'm going to use an active EQ in this instrument, which requires a battery. I like being able to access the battery without having to dissassemble the instrument to get to it when it needs changing, so I routed a spot on the back for the 9v battery holder.

I also determined exactly what type and where the electronics were going with the design of the pickguard, so now I routed more on the front of the body for the electronics (3 volume knobs, 3 EQ/tone knobs, 1 pickup selector switch)
