the back of the neck on the JP proto? I'm just curious as to how the mahogany looks oiled and waxed. If I'm not mistaken, I believe mahogany is considered a porous wood as opposed to maple. Was it challenging to finish the mahogany with the oil and wax? As far as feel, can you give some descriptions compared to your awesome oiled/wax maple necks?
Thanks

The neck is finished in poly. It is not oiled and waxed

maple & mahagony are both porous......w/ very similar filling required. mahogany typically a little more porous.

So gloss poly or flat/matte?

This thing must just sound awsome! Nice and fat warm sound with tons of sustain, probably more like he was trying to achieve with the short scale proto I'm thinking.

Gloss

Wow. That's interesting.
