Rosewood touch up markers

Sign in to disble this ad
I was hoping something like this would have been posted. I defreted a jazz bass i had around that I wanted to breath new life into. So like with most amature jobs it has a few mistakes in it. Nothing to bad. It plays and sounds amazing! I was just wondering if anyone knows where I can get a rosewood touch up marker to cover over wood filler where a little more wood came out then what I wanted. I tried my local shops, and a few places online. I can find the markers but not in rosewood. Thres just a few spots that are bugging me, and if I tape fretlines off, and cleanup with the marker, it will look like a cleaner job.

Instead of using wood filler I mix some rosewood dust with s-glue to fill chipouts, etc.

i already vacumed up the wood chips. Though I don't plan on doing this again. I learned a lot of lessons. Def want to heat the frets up before you pull them off. I could tell those frets where glued in.
