hi guys been a little busy lately as I've had a couple of guys here in Adelaide approach me to teach them how to paint guitars successfully, one has tried to do kits but the finish has been pretty bad, another scratch builds violins which he does crazy good work but wants to learn how to finish them traditionally with french polish so haven't had time to do my own.
here's a few I've managed to finish
Oh my! The GR....
1) ES-5V

Yes, talk about a mirror finish!Originally Posted by DarkMark
I'm not sure a factory finish could even look that good. Outstanding work Phrozin.

[Oh my! The GR..] seconded, or maybe that was thirded! If only I was close to that I would be over the moon.
Sorry. Still trying to work out quoting thing. Man I live in the past!!!!
Just looked again (couldn't help myself). Is it a gr, or the aes-1? Just looking at the volume and tone placing...

hey all It starts again been just over a year so can't wait to get into it have had some serious health issues which knocked me around a bit, but all good now ready to go Ok have not worked out a plan yet but will be stain/dye may be a burst not sure spent a week digging out the guns and sanders and boxes of parts I figured I start back with 1 of my favorite guitars spalted maple Tele with Ash body which is a fairly easy one don't know what happened to the purling but no biggy, i'm thinking string throughs, different bridge would love a set of P90's in a tele so will see where i end up
and guys when your working with these different finishes wear your safety gear and keep the crap off your skin and out of your lungs, especially 2K don't take it for granted and she be right
All the best with the new build.
I'm looking forward to following your build.
