    Very nice!
    I was looking for a nice veneer for my SG but haven't found anything as nice as this yet... maybe I should look harder!

    Im not using a high gloss finish this time, think id like to have a satin lustre, so am going to use satin wipe on poly to see how that goes, im going for a more natural timber finish.
    heres some pics of 1st coat.

    Hey nitro, sorry missed that!
    I'd be interested by something quite light in colour as I want to tint it purple. Initial plan was to get a flamed maple top.
    Would be awesome if your brother in law can get a nice bookmarked veneer!

    What did you use for the wipe on poly? Feast & Watson?
    Cheers!

    Cheers. Where do you get Minwax from? I've been wanting to try it out and can't seem to find it...

    Fred have you tried Masters (they have almost closed down) or the big green shed ? Think one or the other may only sell either gloss or satin, I can't remember

    Green shed don't sell it. They have the Feast & Watson version which I tried with good results on my red plywood strat. But it's oil based so gives a slight yellow tint. I was keen to try the Minwax water based one.

    Masters is just to far from me...

    no worries Fred, well Nitro may see your query and help you. I've never used it. Otherwise try any other local hardware or maybe a larger paint shop
