Sorry Jim I don't think it's one of your better works, not because of anything you have done wrong.
The best bit is the Rosewood.
The Bocote doesn't have a defined grain, it looks a bit spalted or something messy about it.
Ike it was good and I picked it with dirty hands would have the same effect.
Is the picture in focus?
I'll go and clean my glasses it may be me, sorry mate what was that? Don't forget my case and coat !!!:mooney2:
