    love the headstock binding Scott, great work.
    I don't think I'll attempt it even though I do have both Dremel binding jigs. Just too awkward around the ends.

    I am about to go off to the big shed and get some Timber mate to grain fill. After watching a Vid the other day. I might put some dark brown in it and pop the grain to see just what's there.

    All the blood sweat and tears were definitely worth it, binding came up a bloody treat!

    @bargie, @kels ... thanks guys, yeah even though there's a couple of small flaws (so it ain't "perfect"), they're not overly noticeable ... and especially as its a first effort I'm pretty stoked with it

    So, apart from just having to drill a couple of holes, the next phase is giving her some colour ... so now its just a wait for the custom-mix "Grorange-that'll-fade-to-pink-when-you're-least-expecting-it" Dingotone from DB ... (Geez, I really hope he wasn't serious! )


    Wait a minute ... that sounds like Rock and/or Roll!

    SG-1 ... "Little Miss" finished in Flamenco Cherry Wudtone
    TL-1A ... "Slugger" finished in Antique White Nitro
    EX-1 ... "Metal God" finished in nickel-plate (work in progress)
    ST-1A ... "Scrapper" stained and finished in linseed oil ... and with the "secret weapon"
    GR-1SF ... "Rocker-billy" (just arrived, work in progress)

    Scott, great job on the binding. It really helps define the headstock.
