Nice job bro, the details make it, and shiney always looks good. good work with the tatt ink
Yhep, you can use Nitro over wudtone. Just make sure you leave the wudtone to cure for at least a month beforehand.
Also scuff the finish with 400 grit before applying Nitro.
Now for the good news.
You can spray nitro over Dingotone!
Just apply the staincoat, let it cure for at least a week then scuff and spray away.
The important thing with nitro is to first give the Guitar a coat of Vynil sealer, then cut it back with 400 grit then apply the nitro.
I add a few drops of Fish Eye remover to each coat, this eliminates any annoying pin holes that may appear.
I never thought there would be a day when DB giving advice How to apply nitro over a stain coat!
It was probably the Bunnings selfie that changed him.....Quote:

Maybe I'm missing something, but to me it just seems ridiculous.

it is a stunning axe Barge but $17k, think they are dreaming. Would love to get that quilt finish on the cap. See the covers on the back the grain has been matched pretty well.
Good call on the paua shell dot markers that will really compliment the top colour.
Why are you removing the frets ? I've changed dot markers with the frets in place
I was dissapointed to see they don't offer a matched pair of the PRS guitars I don't want them now. Did you order it Nige lol
I was thinking about putting in a cheeky lowball offer:-)Quote:

I've discussed this elsewhere. PRS Private Stock guitars are one of a kind, master built guitars pretty much catering to collectors only. Top of the line everything, best of the best. Do they represent value for money? Hell no. But, they are unique and very exclusive.
You know what bro, if I had money coming out my a-hole I'd probably buy that guitar, just because I could. But I just can't see $17,000 worth of guitar there, but hey, I'm no expert either.Quote:

Really? I wouldn't touch one. Chances are, I'd put a ding in it in about 2 minutes. :P I don't see why a 59 Les Paul is worth $100k either. To me guitars are tools. Damn sexy tools, but tools none the less.
Orr hell yeah man, I'd own it in a hearbeat. Like I was just saying to Kimball, there's people in the world that are lucky enough to have unlimited cash and this is the sort of thing they buy. If I had unlimited cash I'd blow it on ridiculously overpriced guitars too, just because I could.Quote:

Fair enough, if we're talking unlimited funds then sign me up for this bad boy.
