Ah yes Nik, love your surfcaster. From memory you blended 2x Wudtone (surfer girl & azure sky)? The natural colour of this ash has added itsa own natural glow to the Wudtone. Did you use any highlights on yours? This is my next job.

Highlights added. Hard to see in these photos but you should get the general idea...

Yeah thats looking cool
3rd final coat to be applied to body. Colour is much richer in real life. Neck finish done, time to press in machine head ferrules and fit bone nut. Then a week or so of curing.
Also my PBG supplied Benson Texas pups have arrived!

looking sweet as Ponch, what clear have you used on this, is it wudtone clear ? I lose track on all the build diaries what products everyone uses. Looks like a satin finish,
where is the headstock logo Ponch ?

That's about right! On the other hand the Dingotone on neck was glassy gloss on coat 3. I knocked back a bit with steel wool and perfecto.
