    Yes, the sanding is the fun part!!! DB, how much would Dark Onyx with just the color coat??? And Gav, is Timbermate really needed, or will the Wudtone look nice with no filler at all???
    The Timbermate would only be used to remove the filler used by the manufacturer to cover up any blemishes in the wood. On its own the natural pores in the wood will be sealed and leveled beautifully by Wudtone....
    So how much sanding will be needed along with the brush to remove the manufacturers filler??? And I have the urge to run to bunnings, get a 4mm drill bit and then drill the required holes...

    Hey Callum,

    The Dark Onyx comes with a deep colour coat and a base coat.

    This means you can get a really deep rich colour which will really enhance the grain of the timber.

    Remember, the more you put on, the better the results, especially with the base coat.

    There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....

    Callum, what holes need drilling? They should all have been drilled.

    The holes for the hardware

    But how much would I pay for JUST the Dark Onyx deep color coat, because the other coats are from the Goldenrod

    Ok, you mean for the pick up covers, machine head screws, etc. I had this picture of your kit arriving without any wiring holes drilled.

    Not sure I understand what you are asking here, but the kit comes with deep colour and base coats. The base coats also have colour in them to further enhance the over all effect.

    The top finish coat has no pigment.

    Therefore the Dark Onyx kit comes as a three part kit.

    Oh, and you would be better to get a 2mm drill bit for the hardware screws.

    There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....

    Hey Callum, I will email you about your idea, I am still trying to work out how to do this without the colours bleeding through and making a mess!
