I am right there with you, it took me half a dozen sentences and numerous edits to just say use a decent quality leather, time has proven it kind to guitar finishes, and I did not even really manage to effectively convey that.

You're all good man.

That IS pretty cool about cork. I didn't know all that.

The only reason I'd mentioned fabric is because I'm staining the wood my typical brown, and I figured a black fabric would look better than open cork.

You can stain cork. Also there is a dark brown/black variety, it is most often found in the large granule 12"x12" tiles at office supply places, Menards had it last I looked, along with the small granule light brown 12"x12" tiles and the rolls of gasket cork which is also the light brown.

But fabric will not hurt, I would just install it in a way that it will not be a chore to remove if the cork needs renewing.

Interesting. If it takes stain well, that could work well. We'll see what I come up with...
