    HB-6S........yup, another build.....

    Started coloring this one yesterday and today. Going green on this one. At least the back and the sides. Black stain on the headstock. A very light, almost white, stain for the spalted top.
    Tomorrow, I'll check the neck angle before gluing. Cheers folks!

    That's a little better. Gotta hand it to keda powder dyes. Mixing some blue in the morning for another guitar.

    The neck didn't take the dye like the body, which was expected, but this came out blotchier than I would like. There's some very interesting wood grain in this neck. I could cut it back, but I kinda dig it. The upside: the back of the neck is ooohhhh sooo smooth, so I'm going to leave it like that. Held up next to the body, it looks pretty decent.

    I cut the color back on the back of the neck. Couldn't take it. I'll post a pic in the morning.

    For some reason looking at the pics make me feel compelled to reach for long bow and a green felt hat.......
