I'm not entirely sure of the sequence they built these guitars, but I always thought the neck was put into the body unfinished. The fretboard was then taped off, and the entire guitar stained. Then sunburst. Then binding scraped. Then nitro. Then, the fretboard is untaped.
Wouldn't the neck be the same color as the body? Maybe over the years it gets lighter from playing, but I can't think of why the neck would be darker, unless of course, they are painted separately.
