Is the Myrtle naturally that color or did you stain? What type of finish did you use?


That is the natural color of the Tasmanian Tiger Myrtle. The finish is catalyzed polyester and was done by Joe White. I cannot say enough good things about Joe and his finish. His work is beyond belief and one heck of a nice guy [:Y:]

I would also like to make a pitch for his satin neck finish. I said it before but it is worth repeating. It is the finest neck finish I have ever felt. It is smooth as silk and doesn't ever grab your hand. It also has a wonderful rich look and adds a really cool dimension to the finished guitar.

Stunning looking guitar.

I am only beginning on number one and you certainly have set the bar high. I will be happy if the first and second one just have the general shape of what a guitar is suspose to look like. Great job!!
