Veneering

[Si600]

Or possibly just veering... 

It's more a question for @andyjr1515 but rather then PMing I thought I'd ask in case the answer is interest to anyone else.

Have you tried veneering over a veneer?  I'm idly thinking whether it would be possible to have a highlight line in a darker wood between the body and the top veneer.

Fairly common practice I think, my ACG has a thin black veneer between the body and top wood.

Hmmm...well I suppose theoretically.  Certainly, when Jez (for example) and I put black and white demarcation lines between the fretboard and the neck that, essentially, is what we do:

However, like @ikay 's lovely ACG, it has the stability of being sandwiched under some thick flat wood.

If I hadn't used my last piece of myrtle for the Bassbash demo (it would be a shame to cover up such a lovely veneer) I'd have a go.

I have done some daft things with veneer, though:

Or just use plywood in the first place!
