Here you go - front is Maple, back the spalted Sycamore http://imagebin.org/237002 http://imagebin.org/237003 On the back you can see a hole - that appeared during sanding, I just filled it with super glue and carried on. It had about 3 more coats of clear Nitro after these pictures were taken. It was only soft where that small hole was, the rest seems fine. Doesn't affect the sound. The main body is 1 1/2 inch thick Mahogany with 1/4 maple front and 1/4 sycamore back.
