A) Chose control cavity layout (home for the volume and selector switch), built the template and routed the shape into the guitar
B) Kept on routing down to the proper depth
C) This cavity needs to be covered so I came up with the cover plate design. Walnut is the wood to be used for this application, of course because the top is also walnut. I drew the design, then made a jig (template or router guide) then routed it to the correct depth, about 1/8 inch.
D) Two pieces of walnut were glued together to make a cool control cavity cover plate
E) I traced the template onto the walnut and cut, sanded and fitted the piece to fit. The tremelo system will also get a walnut cover plate.
