I am afraid this Guitar has dodgy Clear 2k it is still soft. I am going to have to sand it all off and respray with my favorite hard as nails Baslac clear 2k after Xmas. I will do it the same day I...
Headstock first cut it still looks a bit fat on the nut end I will clean it up with some sanding and see if it has the desired effect.

I will be Highlighting the grain it is to good to paint over on the body. This kit is a custom from a new PB supplier hence I will be putting more info about the wood than usual the bridge is still a...
Received my P Bass kit today nice grain it seems a pity to cover it up with the massive pickguard.
JUst given it an initial sanding down to check out the surface I found one fill in a crack and a...
Yes very Nice SG-M Mine is still in Limbo got to get the Head decals sorted ;-) and final polish.
Yep and Birthdays are great as well. Just comment how cool it would be to make a custom and sell your others off.
If you know what sound you want you can make it happen.
I made my LP to play blues...
Welcome. Keep the excuses coming I need one for my 5th build Its going to be an Awesome Eleanor TL. I have a Vision so it must happen.
Check out my SG-M in the builds diary. It Does Full on Rhythm...
My Les Paul clear is still not rock hard. When it is I am going to sand it back and recoat with baslac. It takes 1 day to set solid. Here's the thing clear in spray cans has a shelf life. It also...

It is a super veneer now to get some goof off. So I am prepared for Xmas.[emoji450]. I Am thinking of inserting 2 balloons in the f's and inflating them. So no spray gets inside. Any better ideas?
...
I used 2 clamps on my sg placed side by side on the tongue.
They were not as big as Marcel's clamp.
Cheers. The kit arrived at home today so I will see it tommorow and hopefully I have some good veneer to work with.

I have worked the nut set the torsion bar to slightly bow forward 1/64 clearance at the middle of the neck when fretted on the first and last fret. It all looks perfect I had to take <2mm of the...
My Action is way to high and I can not lower the bridge any more so looks like the dremel is coming out unless any one has another Idea.
The 2nd fret buzz was mostly caused by the truss rod I have backed it off the head had gone to far back. Still fret work required. It's buzzing all over but the 2nd fret is ok and I have got the...
Yep full stock build peeled the stickers off when I saw them in the photos. I may look at a different set of pickups in the future also the 1st fret is to low and are causing me to raise the bridge...
Here is the completed build I will post it to GOTM when I have finished setting up and polishing.

I will do some better photos when the Light outside shows of the wood...
It has now cured unlike my LP which is still a little impressionable. I would certainly recommend the Baslac 40-40 product for 2k clear finishing you just do a 100ml clear 50 ml hardener 10 ml...
