Muzza's second build. A 'proper' PBG PRS-1Q

[Muzza]

Are you worried that if you tape off the rosewood fretboard (and edges) and stain the maple neck black you are worried about the stain leeching under the tape and bleeding into the rosewood fretboard?

I think thats what you are saying.

Yep, you got it!

probably be more worried about trying to match the maple neck with the body as one black.

Not sure what YOU mean now... I'm pretty sure the neck and body will be almost the same depth of black. I've seen some pretty ordinary results with Wudtone's Black Magic Woman and I've not had a good run with the Black Stump, so I've used Feast Watson Proof Tint black under the Black Stump to give it a push along.

If it were me, I would polish the edge of the rosewood fretboard up to 2000, tape it off and stain the maple neck. given the density of the rosewood and with some polishing I doubt it would bleed, but you can't be 100% certain. you could check under the tape after each stain coat and if there was bleed you could try and blot it with a wet rag or if dried sand it back.

Looks like a job for Micro Mesh Man... I investigated the MMs after you mentioned them in your LP build thread and ordered a set of 9 last night, the 3"x 6" pads.

Edit: I like the burst you got going on there!

Thank you
