The Bass looks great! Shaping up very nicely.
Couldn't resist- I put another coat of CG around the edges and blended it in with the deep coat of Burning Sun. NOW it's done.
Three shots of the finished finish (?) with freshly scraped binding. Now awaiting the top coat application.
I was sent two bottles of Gold Highlights with the Wudtone kit, but won't be using them. Any takers? DB, would you like me to,send them back?

thats the way to go BG, the darker burst looks heaps better, good job, this will be a stunner after clear coats.
I got a heap of leftover highlights which have probably gone off. DB may want you to send back a highlights or for the cost of postage leave it in your fridge

BassGuy, you've added another layer of awesomeness. The burst on both the front and back looks perfect now. I love how the darker edges of the burst have also darkened up the flame maple figure underneath them. Rather than hide the flame beneath the burst, the figure pops all the more. Brilliant! Love it dude..
cheers,
Gav.

Nailed that sunburst BG. One of the best we've seen.

And that, gentle reader, is that- the Wudtoning is done. Second and final application of satin coat done and dry! This warm weather has its benefits.
Now for the fun bit- wiring and gluing.
