Stem to end looks fine, and with some wrap materials probably is fine.

shellacke
i've done end to stem, but recently switched over from stem to end. it
looks cleaner.

it gets loose. Adding shellac gets it to stick to the bar again.
I have since gone to blue lizard skins and twine looks good on it, too. But
