It will change with trimming to size then even more with sanding and finishing. I am looking forward to seeing what it ends up at.

More of a self control issue really. So many great wood choices, so many ideas & so little space (& play/practice time). I don't need another bass, however, wanting is a different story.

This is a piece with oil showing what the neck will look when done.

The first coat gets a quick saute then it sits for a day or so. The rest of the coats get slathered and rubbed in.....

That is hands down one of the most beautiful fretboards I have ever seen. Makes me think of Saturn.
