Dang, I thought this would be easy, but now again I'm getting partial to the latter one. It's much better balanced...the above one looks sort of skewed...and I'm having doubts about how it would balance.

Plus there are clear benefits to the latter one...only, it needs something...the upper back horn is not quite properly proportionate now.

Or, I could just round out the upper version like the strat and be content with the difference of the front horns mimicking the headstock shape...
Well, luckily I don't have to make the call just yet. Plenty of time, no rush...next week, I might be able to glue on the fretboard. Or maybe the week after that...but, no rush.
