: I bookmatched the first 8 strips on each side and here's a closeup
: of a section near the bow that I wiped with a damp towel.

Looks really nice and the ebonized strips look to have come out very black :)

Btw, the strips don't really look bookmatched, the grain isn't perfectly in line. Normally for bookmatched strips one piece of wood is cut in two pieces and then the grain matches perfectly when laid side to side.
