    TD's STA-1

    Another work build! The body was stained with Ubeaut blue water dye (diluted to 25%, 2 coats) (the ash colour turned the blue to aqua!). Given 3 brushed on and 6 wiped on coats of Tru-oil. Sanded along the way up to 2000 g. I wanted to keep the grain texture on the body. The neck was given 9 coats of Tru-oil, and the fretboard given 6 coats. The headstock logo and body sign are Cricut vinyl stickers put on after coat 3. The serial number is stamped on, filled with ebony Timbermate and sanded flat before the Tru-oil.
