Kind regards,

Dave -

Now THAT's more like it!!!!!!! Wood, Wood, and MORE Wood! The contrast between the two is just gorgeous!

Got just one question: - How are ya gonna compliment that beauty with a fretboard that won't ruin the overall effect?

Wonder how veneers of the same woods would work. Since you're an inlay man, you should be able to come up with a real winner.
