Radiobar 107 messed up
#4

Yeah,
I'm looking for feedback of what color should go where.  This isn't one I'm keeping, so the plan is to sell.  I'm trying to get top dollar for it, so it needs to look like a million bucks to maximize what I get for it.  I overthought this one and now I'm in pretty deep.  Just wanted to get some feedback of what colors each part should be.  I went with black on the poplar to try to give it strong contrast, but had too much of it and tried for a lighter color that ended up like peanut butter to even it out.  Looking for advice on what colors should go where...

Looking at it this morning again, the grain looks nice, just too much going on with it. Once again I over thought this one.
