@aarontunes , how did you manage to match unfinished padouk neck and finished padouk top ? Tips?

It is a padouk/padouk neck on an alder Soloist, painted Cinder Red (that is being made now). Black hardware. I'll play jazz on this thing.

You were trying to get your Velocity to a light weight, right? What weight did it end up at?

The Velocity is really lightweight already, and it is an amazing instrument. I haven't put it on a scale, but I'd say it is probably barely 7lbs.

The parts were curated by someone else and sent to me for assembly, so unfortunately I have no tips to impart, other than to say that certain woods seem to darken more under finish that others. It would be interesting to see if the fretboard oxidizes to a different color over time vs the body. But the parts are all disassembled now, and have gone on to new lives.

Man, that was a successful release! 20 gone in 3 days.

Dang, it’s a fine video but I wanted to see Aaron play Black Star or Arpeggios from Hell. Preferably after falling out of a Testarossa with no less than three gold Rolexes on.

Clearly more is more, so also Far Beyond the Sun, right?

I am qualified to do any Yngwie song from this video:
