great !! thx for the reply
that being said, which to do you think then would be a "better" choice to do like a "tiger-eye" effect on a figured maple piece.. the dyes i've tried seem to go on "light" and i've had rub them in a couple of time to get a good color... dunno if maybe i just need to change the concentration of the dye..

this may be a dumb question - but is there any significant difference between stains and dyes (benefits/drawbacks) ? if so what are they?

Hi All
I was wondering what stain colors you would use to get a "tiger eye" look on figured maple.
Kinda like this look - http://prsguitars.com/showcase/private/ps237.html.
I know there are probably several diffent stains or mixes that could be used, but was hoping to get an idea of what most people prefer.
Newbie Question On Neck Building
in Solidbody Guitar and Bass Chat
Posted
i'm sure this is a newb question but, how straight (or i guess "flat" is a better term) should a piece of wood for a neck be before gluing on the fretboard? I have two pieces of wood i was thinking of using to build a neck (one mahogany and one maple). Both of them are pretty flat when you put a straight edge to it - but not perfectly so (both have a very slight bit of bow in them)
- will the truss rod take care of that?
