    Here's the ES with 3rd coat, flame maple top starting to jump out but still not happy with edges still not taking in the wudtone. The back doesn't have any glue problems mahogany soaking in well 2nd coat on back and sides


    You talking about the binding that isn't taking the Luthier's Gold??? Yea, bindings don't like it too much!!!

    The bloody bindings take the Wudtone just fine, it's the gliue used on the bindings Callum.

    Another amazing job Wokka. That dark amber has really popped the figured maple. Awesome.

    cheers,
    Gavin.
