That body colour looks fantastic andrew! She's gonna be a fantastic axe. The jnrs are really amazing to play IMO - the offspring will love it, if it can be pried it out you hands once finished that is!
cheers,
Gav.

We're just across the way and we've had 320mm in the last few days. Luckily I am still waiting for the kit to arrive so it isn't the weather, but Aussie Post that is holding me back...Originally Posted by andrewdosborne
(Oh that and a lack of knowledge and experience)
@Gav - colour really is a one off, there was nothing scientific about its creation! @Rabbitz hang in there for Auspost, it's like waiting for Santa!

It has its pilot wings. Neck sanded ready for stain apart from a small bit of headstock that needs tidying up with a needle file. Now where did I put it?

Body colour is looking amazing Andrew. Those first few coats of TO really get the grain popping. She's going to be a stunner! Oh, and great work on the headstock BTW.
cheers,
Gav.
