Dave, do you know what's involved in getting a neck 'glossed'? Do the frets have to come off?

I want to get my P bass re-lacquered. It's not bare wood on the fretboard.

Don't know about glossing a maple fretboard, sorry. Normally people pay big money for "relics" where the gloss is all worn off. Go figger.

I've just sprayed the whole thing and then sanded to finish off the frets when I did the fret work. Lacquer doesn't stick all that well to metal anyway.

When I received the Warmoth neck, the whole thing was lacquered, frets and all. I taped off the fingerboard and steel-wooled the lacquer off of the frets.
