I find the top piece very striking, to the point I would not use it in a guitar but would frame it and display as an artwork.

You should see what it would look like when it has a finish on it…

Is it possible to steam and curve these thicknesses to re-front a p bass?

I’ve never done it, but reckon it would need to be more like 5-6mm to bend it. I can easily thickness it to whatever thickness. 

 

Or glue it on flat and blend it into the arm contour.
