Yet another Sale item is coming my way.

[ozzbike]

The purfling is what had be confused as to how to finish this one.
I was thinking leaving the front alone and matching up one of the brown shades from the purfling for the sides and back, keep it looking natural and organic. Probably the first and last time I would want to use brown.
Looking forward to see what you do.
I think this is the problem I faced when I made a purchase out of the specials bin. It’s not as if I had an idea in mind and brought the kit to match. I brought the kit and had to come up with the idea of how it was going to turn out.

Orrrr what about bright red (green, whatever) back and sides.

It is a problem....that back....hmmmm....maybe red...dont know about green.

But I do think a different colour between the binding on the edges. I like that effect.

I also will be repeating my kids paint brush with water based poly on the binding before applying any stains. It worked really well on my Telecaster and was easy to put clear over.

Maybe a Japan Brown on the back with an Elm colour on the sides. Both brown....the back would be a black/brown and the sides would then be a brown brown. I think Tru Oil all over to grab the figure and then finish with spray Polyurethane again. That stuff is so forgiving.
