Nice bit of grain in the rosewood - seems that PBG are getting a couple of nice rosewood fretboards through at the moment.

Found some quiet time in my life so got stuck in and did some neck work.
After the disaster of the last neck I have kept this one simple .
Stuck with the stone inlays and will dye the fretboard. No frills neck
Stone inlays look really nice mate
Hey Tim, great to see this axe with the creepy title re-emerging.
The new neck looks very swift. What kinda stone did you use?
nice to see this moving again Tim

Cheers Nick, I am liking the stone inlays at the moment
Max I am using Malachite stone, sexy green.
Me to Stan Its been a long project
Of course its fretless Wokka. I have inlayed the slots with the stone as well. And I to enjoy the de-fretting process best thing I purchased was the de-fretting pliers..
Looking Good Tim, do you have many dramas sanding the stone back?
Tony
No dramas Tony just had to start with a rough grit . I started with a 40 grit on this to get it down. then I will sand up to a 800 grit.
