Welcome from the 413!
What would you like to know?
The wood was painted the same color as the body, not the fancy stuff you most commonly see.

I made this wood from rough sawed ash using this print. I have to be careful with it because it is a mixture of northern and southern ash. It try to keep them from fighting.
There sure is a big difference in growth rings. The South being wider.
