It actually has 4 coats of tung oil on it, but due to the shitty pics you cant really see it
Its completly finished at this point, strung up and wired

I spent 17 hours a day working on it after I recieved the neck from Mike, I like the way the heel feels so I didnt feel the need to carve it much

Seriously? Even though it goes to body thickness before the end of the cutaway?
I can't tell from the picture- does it heel match the body thickness at the upper cutaway or before?
You should post some closeups of the front and back!

yep right at the upper cutaway it does match the thickness, as for the lower cutaways heel, it is the bodys thickness about half an inch before the body, thats good enough for me though, as Im able to finger the 27th fret before my thumb reaches that point

I still can't imagine why you wouldn't finish the work on the neck and make it look professional.
You should post up some close up picturs of the front and back though, definitely. It would be cool to see the full view of your work.
