What color will this one be?

[vangit]

great piece of wood. Yeah....what color?

This one will be a beautiful blue color, similar to Shad's 7 string (pre-satin)...

While I was roughing in the neck shape, I was literally singing "cross-grain scratches" to myself (to the tune of "Crosstown Traffic" by Hendrix)!! Wow.

That top is incredible.

I think that inlay combination is perfect. That on is out of the ball park.

It really makes the neck look good and it flows nicely. Great to look at when the guitar is being played on stage.

That's the combo I want on my guitar.
