I have always wanted to see the structural differences in a semi hollow body.  Top wood is going to be Killer.  Have you definitely figured out your finish color.  I really want sound bites from this guitar when your done.  The flame is very similar to my Hurricane.:)

Remember this is nothing like the way a 335 is built. 335s are laminated non solid maple. No mahogany except the neck. In fact the 336 has more in common with a chambered LP than a 335. I think the similar external characteristics confuse alot of people.
No firm choice of finish yet, I have a long long time to make the decision before they need to know.

Yes, the top carve is done, it ranges in thickness from about 1/2 inch at the center, to about 1/4 inch at the edges. I tried to show it in some pics, but its just very difficult to pick up on camera, when the wood isnt lacquered...

Thats my 335 by the way. Pretty, isn't she?
Michael perhaps it is just the perspective of the pics but the 336 looks very deep from front to back...

its partly optical illusion (lack of binding/perspective) but partly the fact the body has not been final-thicknessed yet :)

USUALLY - the "wiring harness" is soldered together, and you tie fishing line to each of the pots and switches - fishing line that has PREVIOUSLY been threaded in the pot and switch holes - and pulled out again through a pickup cavity.

Then you FEED the whole harness into the guitar through the pickup holes, and 'FISH' the pots, jack, and switch out their holes with the fishing line, and then remove the line and attach them with the nuts.

but, IN THIS CASE, the wiring is simply done through a normal access panel in the back (a CS-336 innovation, which was also used for the ES-333, and many years earlier in the semi-hollow BluesHawk.. IIRC, even prior to that it was done in the LP signature hollowbody, too)
