I'm ready to order the neck for my LP build. The body has a natural masked binding and I'm wondering what is the closest binding to match it, cream or ivoroid? The neck will be Wenge/Kingwood with the gold trapezoids like Gregg's LP. I admit I have never seen a neck with ivoroid binding, the pic on the W site is not good enough to understand how it looks, so I'm hesitant about it.
Second question: I will definitely use SS frets so I'd like to ask what is installed first, frets or binding? If I decide to have a bound neck either binding or frets will be installed by my local luthier since W does not offer both on a neck.
If you have any pics of cream or ivoroid binding please post.
