I am going to stain a maple Tele neck with a dark Ebony. I have had problems in the past staining maple and other hard dense woods. I have never used any gel dyes but I hear they work better. Any idea before I booger up a good neck? Thanks.

I have some Cherry around after making some household projects.......(wife won't let me just build guitars, I have to share the wealth)....anyone use this as a tone wood? I have a piece big enough to use as a neck blank, but I was not sure it would hold up like maple.
