    got another light coat of tarkine green on the body and headstock. The colour has darkened over the week from the oils curing. Got a coat of coolangatta gold on the neck, pretty happy with progress

    cheers AJ, pretty happy how the colour has naturally darkened. I still got a bit left for one more light coat, so we'll see how that goes. AJ, your avatar looks a bit like Maxaxe

    When's the brown gonna hit the store? That stuff's great. Wondering how itll turn out over mahogany.

    Ultpanzi I would think the brown stain can't be too far off hitting the store, after 2 beta test coats I'm fairly confident its a winner. Should go great on mahogany.
    ScoopD think the butterscotch is still in the testing phase

    I visited DB Friday and he gave me a new colour to test - butterscotch. I tried an experiment and had a pale coat of the purple stain on a LP-1P, I lightly sanded it and went over it with butterscotch and over a neck, pretty happy with the results. Will hopefully get a 2nd coat on later today
