Should be all black as a nod to black body radiation physics. With a handle. And blazes.

That or a "Planck Fret" - two frets separated by the distance required for the smallest recognizable change in pitch.

The Ultimate Question: What string gauge is needed for 18.84# of tension when tuned to E2 on a 27" scale guitar?

I just tapered the neck and got the binding on. I took a sliver off the walnut neck board I have for this project, so the binding would match. I also got the truss rod installed. Heres a few pics. I'm waiting on a white SD jazz to come in also, so it will have a rhythm pup too. The fretboard and binding arnt wetted down, so they look a little dull in these pics.
