That's the exact same problem I have with my just-arrived PRS-1Q. The bleeding won't show on my built because I'll be putting a pretty wide black burst on itOriginally Posted by Marze
One quirk has been the "bleeding" from the black edge binding into the grain of the quilted maple (see photos below). Adam has kindly offered to replace the kit with a non-quilted version, but I thought I would ask if anyone else has seen this and worked out how to fix it or work around it?
I do like the quilted maple grain and would like to keep it if possible.
What is the quality of the finish like on your quilted maple veneer? Mine looks like it was prepared using 80 grit. There are a few quite deep sanding scratches in some places.
I've been warned on this forum about the Q kits having really thin veneer, so I'm already nervous about sanding the imperfections out before attempting a rubbed burst, which will require MORE sanding.
