I made up a label for the inside of the guitar (I forgot to take a picture). I made the label up on my computer and printed it out on cardstock with my new logo, model and serial number, and I signed it. I sprayed a light coat of lacquer on both sides of the label, andused white glue to glue it to the back of the guitar. Then last night was exciting because I closed the box! I prepared the top of the rim using the same sanding method as I did for the back and notched out the sides for the top braces. I knew I did a good job of fitting the top to the sides because the top actually clicked into place. I glued the top to the sides in the same manner as I did with the back. I forgot to glue a reinforcing cloth to the intersection of the X-braces so I'll have to do that today, and then I'll trim the top and back flush with the sides and prepare to do the binding!
