Hi guys and girls,
Well,I got going on this neck finally. It's a 5 piece mahogany/bubinga for my Grand Concert guitar.
Here's a few pics:

Looking great Dave. I really like the shape of your headstock.

[Kim]

Me too and the rose is just too cool Just how many of them there overlays did you get from Steve Roberson, Dave? They make me giddy

[Nick]

Seconded, that headplate's Gaaaaawwwwwgeous & that's without finish. I'm going to have to wear shades when it's got a coating of jam on it.

Very cool Dave. Is the headstock scarf jointed or is it a one piece neck?

[Aexion]

Wow, sexy piece of wood, just, Wow.

Looking Good

[Dave Anderson]

It's a solid chunk of mahogany-no scarf.

Kim-I wish I had more like this one, like a couple hundred to pick through!
Thanks everyone

Looks great Dave, as per your usual.
I think the Bubinga is a fine match for the rosewood!

Thanks Steve.
And I appreciate the tips on bending the Waterfall Bubinga.
You saved me from a lot more grief on these bindings !
