Re-finishing an Artist TC59

Some extensive modding done so far.
May as well do the neck mod whilst you're at it.


cheers, Mark.

Definitely for a future project. But for this one, I'm pretty happy with the neck as is.

Probably not a bad call anyway. I'd be fairly confident that Artist used a tinted 2-pack poly (-urethane or -ester) and it would be a difficult job to match and repair any finish you took off the heel.

If it were my project, I'd sand the whole back of the neck (including the back of the headstock).
You'd be free to apply your own finish.

cheers Mark.

Then you'd still be faced matching the tint of the fretboard...

Oh, what am I saying... if it was your project, you'd pull the frets and re-radius to 7.25" and re-fret!!!
