First coat of my Tele with a 50% white and 50% Butterscotch / Yellow mix.

Looking at building a 52 Spec, but with an updated Bridge.

After the first coat of Wudtone, the Swamp Ash body looked sensational and I almost threw my ambitions to build the '52 out of the window....well, that's if I had a window...

I have to say it... That's a beautiful chunk of wood, considering the price of these kits. Great choice of finish too Gav.

Thanks Adam,

I hate to think how I would have handled these with a spray system...Wipe-on-Wudtone Rules!

Gavin, you're making it look easy. Could be because it's hard to stuff up, but from a position of no experience my jury is out. I'll be happy to produce something approaching this, and thrilled to match it. Can't wait for the Wudtone Finishing Kit to arrive! Aggghhhh!!!

Some good news Glenn, the Wudtone shipment is no longer "snowed in". They had some serious snow fall in Wales and Andy couldn't dispatch if he'd wanted to. I believe it's leaving any day now...

Hang in there Buddy!

The day the Wudtone arrives at the Man Cave of Lutherie I will be bottling and dispatching it to you.

Yes, Gav makes it look way to easy, but its hard for me to tell as I am also inexperienced with Wudtone.... And 100 posts for me!!!!
