    Hi Shazz, that colour looks great, I'm also using the Karijini Red.
    So how many coats do you think you used on the outer part on the front face?

    Hi John C,
    I went back to the start of this diary and Shazz used Uluru red, not Karijini red.
    I'd apply a couple coats and see how yours looks. Post some pics on your build diary and we can all comment

    Having that coke can next to the guitar gave it a distinct 50's vibe, that's the impression I got anyway.

    Hey JohnC, I used the Uluru red. I did 3 overall and 6-7 on the edges to achieve the burst

    Yeah I very much got the rockabilly vibes from it not just cause of the style but the colour also!

    I could see Chris Isaak playing Blue Hotel on this baby

    BTW, how would you feel about us using your build as the colour sample on the Dingotone page?

    There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....

    I forwarded the pics you sent me to Adam..
    Now all I have to do is get my Miss Fe to email him in order to scare him into posting them on the DT page
