I love the look of this thing and all the ingenuity involved lol! I showed it to a buddy of mine I work on guitars with though and we both were wondering how you plan on accounting for the lack of a truss rod in that classical neck whenever you eventually put steel strings on it?

Thanks! In this project I adopted the approach of "Do first, think later" which has been really liberating. So I'll probs just whack the steel strings on and see what happens. There is an Allen head visible at the base of the neck tho, so this cheapy may have a truss rod.
