I may strip most of the neck as it has the same poorly done clear finish on it. I want to keep Orville though.

Might leave the headstock and the V back black and take the rest down to bare wood.

I did consider an ebony stain and the reason I bought the guitar was for the "Blacked Out" look. But now that I see the top I'm leaning towards a natural wood finish.

Thanks for the suggestions though. Keep 'em coming. It's still all up in the air.
