Myrtlewood continues

Myrtlewood fretboard

Myrtlewood fretboard: ready to go, fretted, and trimmed. Next step will be to shape and polish the ends (so I don't slice my fingers) Then mount it on its Myrtlewood body. The vacant fret areas will be where the locator pins will be so it won't slide when its glued to the neck.
