    Alright folks, we've heard the call and we've ordered some new kits in Ash. We'll have ST-1, TL-1 and EX-1 kits in Ash in late August. We'll see how these look before we order other models in ash.
    That's excellent Adam, I have 2 kits I've got to finish, but after that I'll definitely be interested in some Ash bodies.

    excellent news Adam, this Ash wood looks amazing and I'm keen to experiment with some colours.
    Here's first coat of the IB5, golden rod outside and clear middle both back and front, it's only been applied so hard to tell colour difference of clear and golden, but sure it will be more obvious tomoz

    change of plan. ditched the golden rod for amber, light sanded and gave a good base coat of amber, I reckon this ash evolves with lighter stain colours

    Wokka, that looks beautiful.

    I was in two minds with my build but opted for a darker finish. That wood is so beautiful I think it would take any colour. I think at this rate we will convert everybody into bass builders lol.
