Is it possible to tint the rosewood darker to get a richer and darker look?
Thanks again for taking this on and I can't wait for my shell pink bullet strat......  |
I use Old English Dark Wood Scratch remover and that tints the wood darker and seems to do a good job of conditioning the rosewood. You could also use an ebony stain from Stewmac
