great idea for practice bursts, never even thought of that, cool

Thanks Scott.

Stan, never done a burst before so thought I had better try it out. It serves a few things, gives me better knowledge and control of my gun, gives me practice on how to blend and cover the guitar top and lastly let's me play around a bit with colours. Was even a little fun.
If anything that I have learnt playing around with stains is that mix it lighter and you can always add another coat - you can't go backward.

Not the best day for spraying but seemed to come out of the gun ok earlier.

Not bad for my first attempt at a burst but not 100% happy with my darkest colour blend. Forum opinion - would you go back and try and transition the dark colour a bit better? It looks a little red in this photo, must be my camera's processing. It is all brown I tell you.

Thoughts?

That is looking outstanding, Kane. You have done wonders with that veneer. I wouldn't be touching it.

[Fretworn]

Wow, that's a great job. I'd be reluctant to change it.

Kane, I agree with Pabs and Fretty, looks fine as it is, ready for clear coats !

My sentiments exactly, not that I'm any sort of expert but it looks perfect to me!

I reckon you just about nailed it and that will look awesome when cleared.

Hope you don't mind I did this Kane. Side by side. Your burst if far better to me than the one you want come close to.
Obviously it's up to you but I say clear coat that beast!

[Nickosaurus]

Better start mixing yer clears Kane looks good to me.
