Sanding is one of the most important aspects of woodwork, and luthiery. In general, if there is a choice of method between sanding and something else, routing for example, sanding is much safer and preferable.
These were my first two tries at a 325 bass. Both are plywood over pine hollow-bodies. The one on the left - #1 - used an experimental neck mounting that I didn't like. The one on the right - #2 - suffered a router mishap. I took all the good parts and built the solid-body, and both of these spent years on the scrap heap.
