Body and neck arrived.

[arjepsen]

Here they are:
The neck is canary with ebony fingerboard.
Body is Swamp ash with a canary top. First pic is the laminate originally shown by warmoth.
Now I just need to figure out how to make the back resemble the coloring of the neck....

how are you planning on finishing this?

Yeah, that's a cool lookin piece of ebony there!  And I like the canary top.  Gotta be a natural finish going on this, no?

Congrats, very nice!

Well, actually I'm planning to paint it with some old grey paint I used on my house once.  :laughing7:
Sorry... stupid joke.. couldn't resist....

Check out the diy finish forum... I've posted my idea there, asking for advice.
There's also a few more pics.


And thanks

Very nice looking!

I wish there was a way to see the special choice for fretboard woods in the neck builder, with a large picture like that.

 

[arjepsen]

Yeah... I actually thought that it would have been a lot less figured than it is..... so I was very happily surprised when I opened the box....  :toothy10:

I love companies that surprise us with better than we expected shipments!

 

[arjepsen]

Oh ditto!!!!  :blob7:

Now I just need to figure out the best way to make the ash resemble the coloring of the canary neck.  :icon_scratch:
