Oh dear...look at the date and the Year....I am waiting on a few bits and pieces to arrive that will allow me to finish off the neck......and then all will be revealed....(hopefully).......
Took a bit of a risk with the finishing and have gone for a slightly relic style approach....hopefully photos will show later...

A question for the experts please:
My maple fingerboard has a really great grain and I really do not like the printed dots on the fretboard....do they remove easily with sanding or do they penetrate the timber to much?

Input appreciated, Thanks
Sam
