Ooooooof this is going to be amazing once completed.  

I vote ebony for the neck as I like the contrast.

This is looking very nice. If it was London plane felled for HS2 then I think my guitar is from the same batch...

Ahh yes..  I think you might have actually bought that from me   Or where I used to work anyway. They were called Saunders Seasonings but have changed name now..  And there were A LOT of trees from Euston he had. Most of it has been milled and sold by now.

Sadly they all got chopped down for no reason, it seems.

Yes it is terrible what has happened. At least some of them got re-used and turned in to furniture and various other things rather than burned.. If it wernt for Bruce they would all have been burned.
