My first thought was what a wonderful looking textured black binding set this would be. An element on a headstock etc. I’ll be playing with this for a bit and see if I can’t work it into a proposal on a custom build when the time comes.




Thanks for the link. I like how much detail there is.



Thanks Dustin! I’m doing great and business has been very good. I seem to attract customers that want some wonderful woods and it’s my pleasure to provide them!

Thanks for the comments!

It is nice to have customers always willing to take on an experiment right!
