Got the neck done today.
But in my excitement, I accidentally knocked the headstock against the table and this happened...
After much cursing and swearing, I've decided to fix this. I don't think it will be hard to touch up. I repaired dings and chips before but the fact that I destroyed it just after making it perfect just made me really sad.Don't think I'll be able to get it perfect again but some drop fills with lacquer or even super glue should do the trick. I think the dye is still in the wood.
Some more shots of both the neck and body. I think I may have to re-sand some low shiny areas on the body.

Apart from that stupid chip and some low spots on the mahogany back, I think I'm pretty satisfied with this rattle can job. This is probably the best high gloss finish I've ever done. It only took me 6 tries hahaha.
Looking amazing Simon.
cheers,
Gav.
