Wenge and Canary

[dmraco]

Does any one have a Wenge neck with a Canary fret board?  I am really digging the dark neck with a light FB (I currently have a Padouk with Canary FB).

I was hoping to see the contrast with this combo.

Thank all

Not wenge+canary, but I picked up an oddball neck on ebay consisting of a wenge shaft and a pale, rosy-hued grenadillo fretboard.  It does look pretty cool.  I'll get a shot of it when I go home tonight. 

If you want a tele headstocked neck with a strat-style heel and some kinda jumbo frets, I'd give it to you cheap.  It looks like someone's early work as a neckmaker, to be honest.

I would love to see it.  However I am looking for a Warmoth headstock and 24.75 scale

I like the way you think, sounds like a cool combo....I have both canary and wenge, just not on same neck...

Every once in a great while Warmoth will attach a Maple fretboard to some Walnut or Mahogany neck meat, and it looks pretty cool. But, apparently, there's some kind of incompatibility there that keeps them from offering it on a regular basis. I can imagine Canary over Wenge looking equally cool, if not more so, especially up close.

This is the one I picked up that did it for me.  It really matches the body so well too
