Don has it right. Great piece, Steve. :clap: Man, that tree didn't give you a lot of wood to work with for the neck, huh?

No this burl was on a branch so it had a pich in it that i had to cut out.:( I sure wish it didn't but what do ya do. Still have the other half, and can't figure out how i want to go about turning it.:huh
As far as the color and grain, i sure wasn't expecting that.wish the rest of the wood had that color.
