ooo, very nice! :mrgreen:

The body is sanded and I did all the routing etc.
Like on the flamed necks I like to seal it with some honey coloured french polish.
This gives IMHO a nicer "flamepop" Than the dye method. And more important When there are some irregularities like sanding marks that I overlooked I can fix it easily.
