    Got another coat of white in the body today. Unfortunately you can really see where i'd done the sanding on the other coat which had the runs. Going to need a bit of filler and some more sanding before anymore coats.

    Also started putting some thin coats on the neck and headstock which I'm pretty pleased with. Going to have to be very careful about how thick the coats are on the butt. The neck was pretty tight in the body before I did any painting, may have to sand some off but i'll work that out when I get to it.

    I'll post some more pictures once the paint has dried.

    It's always hard to do subsequent coats when you have had a run. The run always seems to be visible even when you have spent ages carefully sanding it out and you can't see or feel it after sanding. That next coat goes on and *bang!* there it is again It's a good thing you used white ... black shows up *every* little flaw... gloss black doubly so. The black on the bevels will realy grab the eye I reckon.
