    oops. experiencing some minor technical difficulties.

    So applied the veneer to the front and braced using the "Paver 2000" professional bracing system only to find a week later that the upper half veneer was seriously bubbled.After trying the hot iron method to flatten, to no avail, decided to pull it off after seeing what the colour I wanted looked like. So in take 2 will be the similar to the colour around the knobs. Black wash then the purplish colour.

    So to get the veneer off will run through a mates thicknesser to clean up the top and have another crack. Another problem I think is getting the guitar edges which are beveled to look like a clean edge to the flat top.
