Learning how to build an electric guitar

It's difficult to photograph the color I'm seeing, actually. It's more blue than I can capture. Maybe video in the morning light.

The purple in the knot is pleasing

And I love the way the white stuck to the tiny light grains.

It brightens the overall color, but there's some depth from the contrast.

It looks pretty home made when I get up close, but I think after a couple more coats of straight oil, it will even out some of the blotchy areas and look better. I just hope I don't lose any of the current color when I do that. It's pretty perfect vs what I had in my head color wise.
