Oh awesome, I'll keep that in mind. Thanks for your help!
Hey man! Welcome. Put in the time and effort, be patient, and you'll have a lovely guitar at the end of it, maybe multiple! Good luck!
I'll check them out, but US shipping to Australia could cost an arm or a leg, as it usually does for things. Would be good for that price though!
:P
In all seriousness, would the bondi blue be able to achieve the darker and lighter colours like that of the original image? I'm leaning towards dyes at the moment for the ability to mix them...
If you're only getting it for protools, and don't care for the eleven rack, I'd reccomend - if you haven't already - checking out reaper for a DAW. It's very very cheap, and you can even trial it for...
How much was the s series? They look so nice, especially the turquiose/blue finish ones.

I'd love there to be a similar kit for them!
I like the idea of a hellraiser kit, nice one.
Awesome, thanks stan and dingobass. I'll be going for the pigment powder.
nickosaurus: oh awesome! They looked decent enough, and it's nice to support fellow Aussies. I might give them a try! Cheers! Plus the mixing is something I'd love to try out, really tailor the...
Very nice indeed!
Is it the hand dyes or machine dyes? And are they worth using would you say?
Yeah I'm in no rush, happy to wait.
I've never purchased these or anything similar before, but I've been searching and found this site: http://www.ubeaut.com.au/dye.html
No idea if its powdered...
I'll definitely continue researching, but I'd hoped to get some advice from someone here.
I'm looking to mix and match with the colours to get the right shades for my builds, and I like the idea of the powdered ones. Where would I be looking for something that's cheap but quality? I think...
Yeah, I might stay away from that for now, I doubt I would have too nice of a touch! haha
So black stump can actually achieve black? That's good.
http://www.pitbullguitars.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Bondi.jpg - looking here I'm not sure that I can achieve the light colour I'm...
Alright I'll keep that in mind, cheers!
keloooe: My main problem with the scratch would be adding a top. It seems pretty daunting.. I might try one without a top first and see how that goes.
Nah, what I meant by curves was like in the...
Awesome, cheers dingobass! I might go for that. I'm hoping to make an RG style shape.
2 more questions
1. I would get the main shape, and then if I wanted curves on the edges and such just sand...
Not sure if this is the right place for this thread. Anyway, I'm thinking about the possibilities of creating a body from scratch for use in my build. Would you guys warn against this for a first...
I'm looking at doing a burst from black to blue to ice blue. What products would I be looking to get? Bondi Blue is the only blue available, and there's no example of it being used to get a much...
Keloooe: I was thinking of that. Just not sure if I can achieve this dark kind of blue with dingotone, the example on the store page is very light. I may have to ask.
gavinturner: that burst was...
Honestly a pro job! Love the finish on the top and the back compliments it really well. Awesome!
That's really good to know. I'd prefer not to fork out for spray equipment.
I've seen a guy do what he refers to as a 'poor-mans-burst' which is done simply using dyes. Here is the link:

I'd definitely be keen on a kit like this. I'm planning a build with a very similar shape actually, but I personally dislike the headstock; just isn't to my taste.
Perhaps take this kit, give an...
