I was wondering how i could get this finish
(http://www.buildyourownguitar.com.au...ead.php?t=5581 ) Its the first guitar down with wood and black stuff.
is it possible to get it on a ib 7 string and is it needing veneer, etc???

I think you'd need to veneer or do a special order with Adam for a veneered one.
Except its glossy (and the spalt) its not a lot different from my GD-1 link in my sig.

Mindis - Spalted Maple on the LP is a veneer. Given the contoured body shape of the IB-7, I think you may struggle to get it with a veneer top, and it would need to be a special order. Send an email to adamboyle at pitbullguitars dot com, and he should be able to find out if it's possible - that said, I wouldn't get your hopes up. Generally veneer will need binding to make sure that you don't knock bits off on the exposed edges.
