Thanks Simon,
I’ll divert my posting to the correct threads.
Cheers,

First attempt with Keda Wood Dye
Now I’ve found the glue spots!

Smoothed, masked up binding and prepared for staining.

I saw how many don’t like scraping the binding, so I have tried to mask it up.
This is also in the plan as the back, front and headstock are to be stained and the sides and neck will be waxed.
If...

Cheers guys!
The neck looked pretty straight when I slackend the string and squinted a bit...

I had already decided on the colors for my first build.
However, when opening the box and doing the mock build, the natural wood does look great on a hollow kit!

I’ve got the stain kit from Keda...

There’s an F chord!??

Decide, order, pay, wait, wait a bit more, wait a bit longer, wait what seems like forever...
It’s in Singapore, it’s in a container, it’s at the port, it’s on a boat...
It’s in Aus, it’s at Adam’s...

Waiting impatiently for my Hollow Body ES12G...

Gives me time to plan the finish, should it be natural, or electric metal-flake blue?
