Very nice indeed Allan, and even the back looks really cool. Sure plenty of others are going to like this one as well.

This fretboard must have been a lot of work! Beautiful wood with nicely contrasting colours too. Well done, congrats.
I guess your customer is now renaming musical notes to planet names and so. For example, d# would be "Saturn ring's lower right seen in current astronaut's perspective".

Thanks. Yes the board was a lot of work, took a fair bit longer than I first thought it would, but these things happen.charangohabsburg wrote:This fretboard must have been a lot of work! Beautiful wood with nicely contrasting colours too. Well done, congrats.

Customer is currently travelling Europe, so he's only seen pics and is keen to get his pretty hands on it!
