Final coats on today! It's been a long wait to get to this point as I have been extra diligent in letting each coat get properly dry before doing the next. There are still some little imperfections, but its as good as I'm going to get with a rattlecan on my back patio.

After a LOT of umming an ahhhing I decided to finish the neck in satin. It looked amazing glossed, but even just handling it unattached, it didn't feel right and I'm sure it would have annoyed me when playing. Plus the frets wouldn't have stayed glossy long. So 90% satin and I'll shoot a finishing coat of gloss over the front of the headstock for aesthetics.

I am absolutely dying to get this thing assembled and see how it plays. So hopefully that's only a week or so away. Woot!
