An ES-5V entry from Steve in Tassie.
"First layer on both the body and neck were the colour coat butterscotch, which had been prepared as a special custom colour, this was just prior to it being added to the standard range.
For the next two coats on the body I added a fair bit of white tint whereas the neck was merely two more of undiluted colour coat.
Then both neck and body had a final coat.
the first two coats were lightly sanded, from then on I used the micro mesh range 3200, 3600, 4000, 6000, 8000, and 12000"
(Apologies for the fuzzy headstock shot; Steve did not include one so I've tried to enlarge the first shot)
