    cool result mate.
    another thing to consider is that steam can also damage pre existing finishes you may wish to leave in tact

    I would never consider doing this to one of my other guitars without the services of a professional Luthier, that is for sure. There is just too much I do not know to contemplate something like a board strip on my Takamine or Eastman for example.

    SO the next step is going to be the hard part, Laying out the Fretboard and fretting it!

    oh yes, the fun part.

    i redid the fretboard on my Harmony the same way, luckily I was refinishing the neck anyway, but steam iron did the job
