    What kind of grain filler did you use?

    I've seen finishes like that on mahogany on Gibson guitars that just have a natural grain filler to lighten it up a bit and then just clear coat.

    They could always copy the PRS version since they beat Big G in court. ;)

    Absolutely. I learned my lesson the hard way! I used a walnut tinted filler on my latest project to get a slightly darker contrast and it's looking good so far. I've got it prepped very smooth for...

    Better late than never I guess... here is the long awaited sound demo. Obligatory apology for my less than stellar playing and recording rig.

    On to the finishing process. After giving the body and neck a good sanding to 400 grit I decided to try giving it a coat of sanding sealer before doing wipe on poly. I'm hoping that make the final...

    I'll keep that in mind. Luckily I have such a thing in my shop.

    It's been a lamination day. I superglued the (possibly) Indian silver greywood veneer to a chunk of pickguard plastic and glued the veneer onto the headstock. The one annoyance left is the jack...

    You must have similar YouTube recommendations to me, I saw this one earlier today. It was an interesting watch for sure. I think the only one that really made me wonder was the string gauge myth....

    Today we determine where I fall on the bold-stupid axis for this project. I got out the router and went to town on the beautiful custom veneer to do the pickguard recess. It was a scary process but I...

    Shaping a veneer when there is binding already in place is a tricky thing. There are some gaps around the edges but I think filler should take care of it. I think it will look pretty good in the end...

    Ooooff... that happened to me a couple times on my Uncle Milty build. Instead of pulling the remnants out I used a nail punch to drive them down far enough to get new screws in. You'll just have to...
