The body with maple top

After removing the clamps I used my band saw to rough cut the maple leaving 1/8" or so then using my flush cut bit with bearing mounted on the bottom I routed it down to the Mahogany.
Here is the body after I routed it down to size. I used tracing paper to copy the pick-up cavities then used carbon paper to get them onto the body. You can also see the MDF I will be using to create the templates for the pick-up cavities. After consulting Jack he has advised me not to route the cavities for the pick-ups until after I have the pick-ups in hand. Just to make sure of the size I need them to be. I am now in the process of purchasing 2 Dimarzio's. So it's time to start on the neck.
