I should probably put this in the projects forum, but I don't feel writing a lengthy step by step thing right now. I'm not done yet, but its taking shape. Getting my Grady Martin on.

Awesome project! Built from scratch or restoration?

i'm assuming the top neck is a ukulele?
That's a ridiculously cool design - like that a lot.

Probably a mandolin.

I love this thing.

Exudes classiness. The pickguard and knobs, the bigsby and pickups. Awesome. Does that second headstock get in the way of playing the guitar half?

I haven't drilled for tuners or cut the nuts yet, so I don't really know, but this guy doesn't seem to have much trouble:
