Wow, looking good! That walnut stain has really popped the grain. It's a beautiful caramel shade too. I bet you are pleased with it. Will be great to see it with the hardware on. These IB-5 kits really are spectacular! Keep us posted with future progress! I need more exclamation marks!!!
cheers,
Gavin.
Very nice indeed!
Hi Brett and welcome to the PBG Family.
Wow, that looks nice. Having built an IB-5 myself I can tell you that they sound just as good as they look, and they do look awesome.
cheers.

Thanks everyone
I'm really looking forward to getting this guitar together.I must say i am already hooked!
Wow Brett, that grain looks absolutely superb!!
Yeah, one thing you can be guaranteed of...it won't be your last kit.
You've caught the bug!!
Cheers

Sweet - can't fault the IB-5.
holy cow Brett that IB-5 looks amazing, you got a ripper grain especially the lower piece of the body the grain is incredible. The walnut stain really suit the grain and its almost popping out of my 2D screen ! What was the clear you used ? Tru Oil ?
I'm getting very afraid to enter an axe for GOTM November !

I used cabots walnut stain and I sprayed the clear ,Cabot's CFP. 1st coat i applied decent coat to fill the grain ,i let it dry for roughly a week and sanded it back then sprayed a couple of really thinned out coats.
