Rebuild...

A picture of the sides after applying stain. (continued)

At this point, I want to concentrate on re-setting the neck. Blending the newly stained portions of the guitar will be addressed after the neck has been reset.

I first, however, want to fix the bone saddle and reattach the old bridge. With the bridge in place and the saddle repaired, I can hopefully check the playability of the guitar before actually gluing the neck.
