Per Rue's request, I made a valiant effort to wrap a couple speed knobs in paua...not bad I guess.

This was one of the last Brazilian neck blanks I had last year. Certainly not the darkest piece any of us have seen, which was why it hadn't been selected earlier, but I must admit that it turned out gorgeous. The feel and tone ain't too shabby either .

Initial tone report is punchy and spanky. The Rio's sound just right in this wood combo with a ton of grind and girth.
I was blown away by how great the neck and the neck+bridge sounded when split...killer tele!

Thanks Reu, enjoy buddy!
