That's a beauty  :blob7:

I just love Black Binding .....  :icon_biggrin: ... http://www.unofficialwarmoth.com/index.php?topic=19269.0

It's hard to go wrong with black binding! My goal is to build a tele to contrast the general profile (hard to find the correct word) of the squier/fender tele's and I've only seen about 2 that were black bound.

As for that strat, I always love a black binding on a white guitar. The Star Wars intro and Stormtrooper neck plate were icing on the cake!  :toothy12:

That is a nice piece of wood, I definitely see some potential in it.  :icon_thumright:
This how mine turned out.

That thing is perfect, Tonar. I hate flame tops, but that is all class.

Thanks!
Geez, that's looks like something you'd see in a master collection or showcase!

Lovely piece of wood. I really like when flame maple produces this kind of grid pattern.

That's what kinda swayed me towards the flame over the quilt.
