This one's being built for myself so it's taken ages. It keeps getting put on the backburner but it'll have a pair of Lindy Fralin Blues Specials in it when completed. Maple neck with Rosewood fingerboard. The body is African Mahogany. Rosewood bindings and a blue tint on the Maple top. I'm thinking that gold hardware might suit as well. What do you blokes reckon? |

Nice to see you, Bob...thanks for plugging in! The rosewood bindings will look rich against the blue! I love gold hardware and use it as often as I can! |

Nice! Blue and gold work really well together, IMHO. Gold hardware gets my vote. |

Thanks everyone. As I said it'll probably take a while to complete this one but I'll throw up some pics as I get 'em. (with the gold hardware) |

I reckon that's gonna be a real beauty, Bob. Sounds like a right nice color combo you've got cookin'. |
