Started the 1st coat of the top. Getting the sunburst is quite a challenge and hopefully it gets better with more coats, so far so good though!

Coming along very nicely.
A trick I use is to encourage the blending is to gently rub the transition area with super fine steel wool.
Takes some practice but when you nail it you will get an amazing result.
There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....
Looking good Deano
Can't wait to see the next stage of this gorgeous build!
