Unfinished maple neck

[Bruno]

Hi.
a trivial curiosity: do you have any images of an unfinished maple neck after intensive use?
No true oil, no teak. Nothing, only wood.
Just to realize.
Thanks

Yep. I'll put one up. I occasionally have to scrape the fingerfunk off of it, but only maybe once a year. I'll get you a picture today.

 

[Bruno]

I would be grateful

peavey wolfgangs (and ernie ball music mans, i believe) come without finishes. a google search for "peavey wolfgang" will get you all sorts of good pictures of unfinished necks with lots of play on them. i think it's a good look, but i'd feel pretty weird about buying a used wolfgang that had a TON of dark spots on it. if it's not mine thats a little strange to me... :icon_biggrin:

anyway, here are two pictures of a wolfgang i used to own. not great shots of the fingerboard, but i'll post links under them and you can see them in their biggest size if you wanted

I was sure the necks were tru-oiled or something...

 

[Paul-less]

EVH had his necks raw.

EBMM also Tru-Oiled the production necks. You should see their set-up, they dunk the necks in a tank of tru-oil, let it sit a couple minutes, then wipe the excess...

[JaySwear]

Apache server can be finicky. Try capitalizing the "jpg" in the link.
