This is an Ash body which oil sanded up to 5000 grit and having its last few finishing oil coats to be ready for a good old wax and polish.
 

Next decision is roasted Maple neck or flame roasted Maple neck with or without a rosewood fretboard. Advice???
 

It will have a black pearl pick guard and black hardware.

Hand sanded Liberon Finishing oil up to 700 grit and 3 coats of Liberon Bison wax. This one is going to be an absolute beauty!

Likes a Nice bit of plain ash.

Thinking of giving the SR600 a rubdown

As for the neck... I don't mind pale maple necks, and quite like pale rose wood. Roasted Maple can look nice and can be kept unfinished ish, rather than going for a tint. Flame necks look a bit, well, OTT especially with a plainer grain of ash. Black Pearl, nice.

I love an Ibanez and have 2 of my own. The 600 would look fantastic with a refinish. I think I am going roasted maple neck with black block inlays. That will work with the pickguard and black hardware.
