I am very tempted to send mine in to be glossed as well. Can you please explain what the "rosewood neck treatment" includes?

I had this service done to one of my BRW McCartys. It was well worth it.
I cant wait. I almost had this all done a year ago and waffled because I didnt want to mess with a stock original ME, but at the end of the day, its not going anywhere, and if it makes it more playable, Im in..Quote:

That looks awesome...now I'm thinking about sending my 59/09 in. I didn't know about the rosewood treatment, and I'm always up for extreme awesomeness \m/!!Quote:

i did an "awesomeness" treatment myself.
very fine sanding with rounding the fretboard edges and customizing the carve to my needs
and special oil finish - no wax!

Heres the before, can't wait to see the after. I decided on 57/08 bridge, 53/10 neck. Black pickup rings, knobs, etc..
beautiful ME - would you show us the neck?
I don't have any pics of the neck...
Incredible!!!!
Gorgeous!!!
Is the neck treatment the same as the 'Private Stock Finish' you can now spec on your PS RW necks??
Perfect. Absolutely Perfect.
