The neck.


Again I was rather disappointed with the lack of flames on this flamed maple piece. The top has stunning flames, but a pity this doesn't.

You may notice that I also added some dark brown to the volute and the heel. I was trying to go for the vintage Les Paul jr type sunburst and it turned out quite well. Actually the real reason was because I forgot to sand the end grain to a higher grit so these were the parts which soaked in a lot of brown stain. I was tired of sanding back the brown so I decided to use it to my advantage. Turned out pretty okay!
