tiger needle
Got my hands on a few pices of tiger maple.

The body is 6" and is 2.oz

It did not look like much when i got it off the lathe but after i put the epoxy on it pow the grain really stood out.

Nice. Tinting did a nice job in contrasting the grain.

I doubt it JPI, lots of pictures got lost a few years back when something happened while John switched servers or something. Bigfish Larry owns that needle now I believe. It might be on the site somewhere but i wouldn't know how to find it.
