    Actually neck joint area on
    My guitar is stained with shellac with a bit of burgundy Angelus dye mixed in, on top of a prooftint Japan black base coat…I’ve been reading about the timbermate and it may not work for me, as it would be filling areas that are covered with shellac in it and based on what I’ve read, as timbermate dries it needs to fuse with wood fibers, to form a bond. This might not work for my situation. Might go the route of making wood filler using sawdust mixed with the shellac I made, that way the color matching shouldn’t be an issue. Just need to find a way to generate a lot of sawdust.

    An angle grinder with a flap disc seems to work well for me, though you do have to then sweep it up from the bench, the floor, the walls, your hair……😉
