What would do this to the back of a neck?

[thez0r]

This is the back of a jackson ps-2 that I got a while ago.

The weird looking blemishes are all underneath the finish. I was just wondering if anyone knows what would cause this.. my guess is moisture somehow this is how I got the guitar.

I was going to try to sand it out and refinish the neck.

This is birdseye in the maple, this is a good thing! makes for nice figure in the grain. This is initially caused by a disease in the wood/tree. and is rarer to have a neck with birdseye.Most people would kill to have nice figureing like this.

Yeah, that's how it's supposed to be. Pretty decent amount of birdeye, too. Cool.

that neck would fetch a pretty penny in the right places. like every one else said it is birdseye maple, good stuff

Amazing how one man's treasure is another's garbage!

Wow! Thanks everyone - I definately won't be touching it now.

How much should a 24 fret birdseye neck sell for?

You can get a nickel for each birdseye

Here a story about a stupid kid named "Bob"! Back in 85'...i had the
brilliant idea to make my inheirited Martin 1943 D-18 refinished to NEW!!
So i asked (luckily for me) Bob Turner at Bizarre Guitar in Phx,Az
what would it cost me to have my grandads Martin refinished??"
He grabbed me by the t shirt, and yelled " do you want your Martin to
be worth $800.00"?? I said..."uh..no".. Im quick like that.
At the time it was worth about $3K.. today $9K ! So spending around
$400 at the time to cosmetically make it like a new one, would have killed
the resale value! (not that i would sell it, but hey.. if im starving 10 years from now, it would be good to get $12K instead of $1500.00!
Always proceed with caution, and ask around! You can see by the pic
just how terrible the condition is!! Shit, its near mint anyway.
