Thought this was going to be a banjo build!
what kit are you building Kaos ? If you don't like sanding then building kits isn't for you !

Gotta let the base coat dry, then wet sand that back before the clear coats............
You know, of course, that in the world of forums and the interwebs if there are no pictures it never happened...
;)
Change, (" Played it till my fingers bled" ). To " Sanded till my fingers bled" and you can hum along while you sand. Forget blistahs. We need pictyahs.

High Tech Paint booth!
wow this one will stand out!
Take it on stage and everyone will definitely be interested in the colour! Looks good to me!
The black hardware should set it off nicely. I wanted this specifically to gig with!
Hopefully my beard won't tangle in the strap.........
Yeah the black will contrast the yellow nicely Kaos, got any other special plans?
I'd like to have DB make up a nifty bone nut. If this axe plays well an updated pre amp is a possibility.......
I'll still use my Skjolds for recording.
None more... yellow! Looks good man
looks great Kaos and you will be able to see that in the dark. This is the 1st five string explorer kit I've seen. Should looks great with black hardware
Only just realised this is a 5 string!
Definitely out of the ordinary for explorers but will be fantastic!
thought the bridge and pup cavities would give it away Pest its a bass guitar !
Wasn't paying enough attention to the pics haha!
Dangit Pest, open your eyes for once!
Looks great Kaos. With a bit of clear on there she's gonna look the business!
cheers,
Gav.
In the process of clear, sand, clear, sand, clear, sand.................decal, clear, sand ,clear, sand, clear...........
Pics or it didn't happen :)
It's happening......piccy to follow!
photo will not upload!! Ratz!
banana..still won't work
Hey Kaos, when I had my thread about my Strat I resized my pictures to 600x800 pixels and less than 90KB file size and used the "Manage Attachments" button down below as the attachment system can onl handle up to 800x800 pixels and a max file size of 97.7KB... Or you could use Imgur and have the image tags, example below
[img] link to image here [\img]
If you use Imgur it automatically gives you the BB code included so its just a copy / paste!
Yeah, I'll have to resize them. I don't think I had to do it before, but meh, what ever!
It's gonna be a player, so the finish isn't perfect......

I need to work on the nut, its waaaayyyy to tall.
Attachment 3229
so I'll knock it out, and get to sanding... Only need about 1.5mm off the base.......

Looking great Kaos! The yellow and black is a great combination. Got a nice gloss going on there!
cheers,
Gav.
Aw dude that is awesome!
Might just be the angles, but that bridge doesn't look like it's quite in line with the neck. Have you put strings on it yet?
Love the yellow, btw. Wild looking beast.
