    Refinished ash VIP with Odie's Dark Oil

    Is "wood brown" the official color of the partscaster?

    Good tone has a brownish color. Bonus points if roasted

    What picks are y'all using?

    Dava jazz grip for me. Got used to them and now I can't use anything else. They are awesome for dynamics control. https://www.davapick.com/buy/p/jazz-grip-delrin I tried the Dunlop tortex flow 1.5mm and its way too thick.
