Yes Wokka, it isn't the only spot either.
The more I sanded the top one the bigger it got. Like they had filled an edge with a chunk of wood and filled it with glue.
I have sanded this guitar heaps and seems to only reveal more glue. So I am stopping and concluded that the only way to get a better guitar body will be to build one from scratch.
I have almost got all the bits aside from the wood. I will be hitting up a local saw mill in a few weeks. All things going well I will then start the templates. That is after "True Rose" is complete.
Have also noticed a few small shallow cracks have appeared after the stain has soaked in - anyone shed some light on this?
Lastly, I am trying something different with the next part. The tapes I have to use all remove some stain if I use it. As I am adding some black GT striping I need to mask off the lines.
My plan is to add a quick clear coat now (acrylic lacquer) then tape off and spray the black lacquer and finish with 6 clear coats.
Has anyone had any experience in this "reverse" order? Does the colour burn in and run/bleed into the clear. What I mean is that the colour not holding it's taped off shape.
Cheers. I am so interested to see the final colour as it appears a bit "too" purple for me. Hope more red comes out.
