Idea for staining - is this possible?

Thanks, fellas! Kuanjb, that's exactly what I'm talking about. I don't know why I don't see more of these. The look amazing.

Thanks for the tips, Simon. If I decide to go this route I'll probably purchase 2 bodies so I can use the first for practice. No actual plans at the moment. I'm having too much fun playing the Tommygun to start a new project.

Rather than a maple veneered body, why don't you buy a sheet of maple veneered MDF, which you can probably get for a fraction of the price and cut up into any number of guitar shapes to experiment with dye techniques. Wish I'd thought of that before I chickened out on using dye at all on my build!
