Thanks guys. You're right, Dennis. it will be amber. Just a dusting of it on the deck just to tone down the whiteness. Then solid classic amber on the front and rear aprons and the neck _________________ BenRom Pedal Steel Guitars

Thanks so much guys.
Martin, always my mentor.
Chris, Yes I must admit that two narrow strips look better than one. I am always afraid of overdoing anything. I guess gaudy is the word...so I go the careful route. But like you said, this looks better.
It wasn't my idea - the buyer wanted it this way. He even selected the inlay strips from Constantines.
Bob V - you are always so supportive and it is truly appreciated. _________________ BenRom Pedal Steel Guitars

Chuck, That was the most original compliment I have received thus far. Thank you!
There has been a change of heart as far as the color scheme goes. The buyer has now decided that I stain the aprons black and the top & neck in the dark amber color. So I can't call her Amber no more.
My suggestion of "Blamber" didn't sit well with him so Ben, you'll have to help me out with a new nickname  _________________ BenRom Pedal Steel Guitars
