    Hi SG, I'd say it won't be available in the shop for at least another month. DB is currently sending out beta test bottles.
    I'm picking some up tomoz to test.

    There is a neck finish, some of the beta testers will be getting a little surprise in their packages.
    I would imagine the kits should start to arrive tomorrow..

    A month might be cutting it a bit fine, more like 6 weeks before we begin the roll out.
    However, all custom colour kits will be the new blend....

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

    Awesome news about the Dingotone MkII kits, I'm looking forward to doing my bit as a beta-tester, Darwin usually has temperatures ranging in the late 20s, sometimes it gets into the 30's, plus, since Darwin is close to the Equator and I'm living in the tropics, the humidity can be a bit high, we've been getting a fair bit of rain lately too, might get some today as I'm hearing some thunder.

    picked up uluru red DT mark 2 yesterday from DB and I had an ash tele which Ads gave me was an early beta test for DB trying Karijni red. First 2 pics how it looked before the uluru and 2nd 2 pics after.
    It is already looking slightly darker as it cures today. Think after next coat the uluru red colour will come through.

    Has any other forumites received their DT mark II beta testing kits ?

    I am planning to try the uluru on mahogany PBG-2 kit I have so this will be more if a true representation of the colour on a clean sanded body

    I got a really nice surprise at DB's yesterday, went up there with a maple neck blank to start a baritone neck and DB gave me his 95% finished baritone neck he had for a build which he thought would never get around to building. I'll post some pics and start a build diary soon but its a schweet looking neck !

    THANK YOU DB ! anyone who saw me walk in with a blank and almost complete bari neck in under 3 hours would have been shocked

    The ally bottles look cool, but I must say, I prefer the clear bottles.
