Nice looking blank canvas on the acoustic there Phrozin.
Is the rosette an actual inlay, or is it a sticker?

[Simon Barden]

Quite a few years ago now I fitted a pickup and pre-amp to a Yamaha acoustic. Cutting the hole for the pre-amp certainly wasn't easy as I had far less tools than I do now. Whilst it had a solid top, the sides and back were laminate and it splintered very easily.

Looks like you've done a very neat and tidy hole cutting job there, Phrozin.

hey guys the latest update

@ Zandit its a inlay i actually through it was a sticker have ordered a new one for it and a few other new bits

@stan yeh was a pain to get it all even i thought it would be easier than it was, i went out and brought a heap of cordless tools to make life a bit easier and a new gravity touch up gun which i have done this lot with along with my airbrush

haven't done much more on the acoustic, been really busy with the Les Paul and the bitza strat, repainted the Les Paul finally happy with it, its all cleared and stored for it to fully dry then polish in a week or a bit longer as its cold as here in Adelaide, The strat because its a bunch of parts and left overs i am experimenting with so it could end up something crazy

here's the Les Paul paint is finished its all cleared by far the most annoying guitar i have done so far 3 coats primer 3 coats of silver and 9 coats of clear picture is with some light on it

hey guy just a bit of update i decided to do a strat in blue and silver haven't done much at all because i sat to close to the heater last week and burnt my foot being a paraplegic i cant feel my feet so didn't know it was burnt till i woke up the next day so wont be doing to much guitar wise


its only been cleared today






here is me poor old foot yeh im a dumb prick at times

[Simon Barden]

Nice burst, not so nice burn. Ouch! Hope it mends quickly and you don't get an infection in it.

Also, your Photobucket account says it isn't allowing 3rd party hosting (you need to 'upgrade' = pay them more money), so can't see any large photos. This is a recent Photobucket change (end of June) and apparently now costs US$399 a year to do so! Definitely time to find a new image host.

I'm not sure what hurts more, your foot or Photobucket's burn.

[OliSam]

Ouch man!!!
Lovin your work but not that burn!
Heal fast dude.
