    Yeah FW, it is getting better and developing character as I put more work (elbow grease) into it.

    I spent 4hrs today doing the French polishing thing with the Shellac and I'm starting to reap the rewards. Still a little uncomfortable with the colour but there is little that can be done about that now.

    Hopefully when the Black electronicy bits and the many chromey bits go on all those nasty thoughts and feelings will fade away

    Thats definitely creamy jade, I know its not what you wanted but I got to say I'm loving it. How does it look across the body/neck heel transition now with the shellac on?
