Hi Andrew... I just sent a friend request so I can 'pester you further' about the cool guitar body:) It looks like a one carved slab sitting atop a larger, flat (and different species) piece?
In any event... it's a great look! Talk with you soon... /// Mike Kolb
The acoustic guys use epoxy to grain fill back and sides and then sand and finish over it, I haven't used West Systems in this role but would expect it to work as good as any other epoxy. I would think that some thickener may be needed as a grain filler as the normal consistency of WS is very fluid like.

Sorry, I referenced the incorrect poster, but my friend request is still valid ;)
