Thanks Andy. I should have made myself clearer . I meant which way are you going to profile the top of the saddle ? Ramp each string individualy or do what Alan does and cut a V slot along the middle of the saddle and notch out with a rat tail file for string clearance.

Cheers Craig

Well done...I agree with John K...I like how the shading on the neck comes through...looks great.

As far as Tortis versus clear...it will all depend on how the color of the tortis looks against the burst...you definitely dont want to go tortis if it will conflict or take away from the color balance of the light to dark color values of the burst.
