Update

I had to take my body somewhere to have the rough shape cut out as my little band-saw was not up to the task. Which has turned out to be a blessing. I had driven by a shop called Mint Hill Cabinet for years on my way to and from work. So I decided to stop in there and see what he would charge me to cut the rough shape. Low and behold when I walked in there was a dude working on a guitar. Turns out half this shop is the cabinet shop and the other half a guy named Jack uses to build and repair guitars. To make a long story shorter he cut out the rough shape for me for a fare price. After cutting the blank, he asked me what my plans were and after that he had some very good reasons how and why I need to change my plans a little. Seeing as he has been doing this for decades I am listening to his advise. So, my plans now are to go ahead and route the shape of the body, glue the maple top on. While I am doing that I am going to start on my neck. I had planed on carving the top first and making the mortes, beveling the 4 degree angle on the body. Then starting on the neck.
After talking to Jack he told me after gluing the maple top on, not to carve the top yet. I need to route out for the pick-ups only. Doing this before carving gives me a flat surface to do this on.
Then start on the neck and complete the Tenon then I can transpose the exact angle of my tenon to the body. My head is over loaded with his advise. I will be talking to him often I am sure. So now I have to get started should have a few more pictures soon.
