Hi Austin,
Cool blogsite! More than that, congrats on your new career! I am very proud of you! Real nice archtop you are working on...I saw you ask for an opinion on what to do about the headstock. In my opinion, I your initials would stand out nicely against a solid overlay, but I would not use ebony or "holly" like Gibson. I would use walnut, or whatever the dark wood is that is used in the neck. That would emphasize the beautiful colorscheme and not dilute it with another color (black). Think PRS.
Anyway, regards to you and your folks, best of luck, and please stay in touch!
- Mr. Egge
