    Wow Stu, stunning! What is the finish on the fingerboard?

    Ta fellas.
    I just spoke to Toby , the owner of Opal and the honeymoon isn't over yet. Still loving her.

    Hi Sebastian. hope you're well.
    The fretboard got satin nitro, as did the back of the neck, with a transition to gloss on the front and back of the headstock. Body is gloss nitro with an epoxy grainfill.
