andyt Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 One piece mahogany back, zebrano top. Found an old board on ebay, that had enough space for a one piece explorer, flying v & sg. Rosewood blank sliced up for fingerboards. Made some necks from another bit of mahogny Thicknessed the zebra down others on the go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyt Posted October 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 first ever attempt at binding, found a router bit & took a couple a bearings of roundover bits that matched the plastic. Glued in the neck getting pretty bored with the brown, liking the (a lot brighter than in the pics) green? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RestorationAD Posted October 30, 2010 Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 It might be hard to pull off the purple or green on the zebra. I have found the only colors that really work are yellows and oranges. The rest looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reinhold Posted October 30, 2010 Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 I've seen a couple warmoth guitars with a translucent Mary Kaye White finish that looks great on zebrawood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
