Tweed you are Satan's love child for showing that!  :evil4:

 

[pabloman]

Ahem.

This thing is awesome. Every tele should be set on fire. Looks like they put it out too soon though. :dontknow:  :headbang1:

 

[Disco Scottie]

I think all the Fried bodies have been ash so far (heh, ash... good joke). Would this work on other woods, like mahogany or quilted maple?

 

[Cagey]

Not having tried it, I can't say for certain. But, my guess would be that it wouldn't show up as well, if at all. The darker grain lines in ash are from growth rings, which in some woods are softer, or at least less dense than the meat in between. So, it burns faster and easier. Makes it show up better, with more contrast. I don't know about mahogany, never having burned it, but I know maple burns slow and hot. You try to char that, and it's likely to just get darker overall. The baked necks I've seen have been pretty uniform in color.

An interesting experiment would be to take a piece of scrap [whatever] and a propane torch, and try to teach it a lesson about lookin' good. Wouldn't cost much, if anything, and we'd all learn something.

Edit: Don't forget to turn off your smoke detectors, or they'll bitch up a storm <grin>

Gone from the showcase as of 5 minutes ago  :glasses9:

GA/PF 59 roundback, 6100 frets, of course.  Always wanted to try a GA/PF neck.  Now I have one for my Zebra Tele.

 

[Cagey]

Nice! So... you bought it?

 

[Tweed]

That's it. My next neck is GA/PF!
Totes McGotes!

If you got a piece of quilt that is that fine I'm sure I could make it look pretty close to that.

 

[Mor Paul]

It'll probably be a year or more before I have the confidence to cut into that piece of quilt.

 

[partialdoctor]

Well hello there.

 

[Death by Uberschall]

Well hello there.

I remember that piece of wood, almost used it on After Burner.

This could be the nicest piece of spalted maple I've seen
