Mmmkay, this is'nt a matter of life or death, but I am befuddled , and here's why;
You see, I have a Warmoth Mahogany Strat that has a kinda cool Satin Matte / Low gloss finish, and I have an unfinished Goncalo Alves neck with a Warmoth dark Ebony fretboard . The issue I'm having is that I want to leave the back of the neck as raw wood, but when I look from the front, its bugs the bejeebus outta me to see the raw neck headstock matched to the Satin body.
At first I was thinking to go ahead and finish the headstock in front as a low gloss matte to match the body, but then I started thinking I would not like the look at all of a finished headstock in front with the rest of the back of the neck being raw wood.
I am all out of sorts here in trying to figure out what to do...has anyone faced a similar "crisis" :toothy11:??
What did you do or not do, and how satisfied are you with the results?
