Yes, sand very lightly top to bottom not with the tiger stripes.
Good luck

Hi all,
Sorry I've been out of the loop recently, but there's been "stuff" at home to contend with that got in the way. Looking at selling the house right now, so I doubt there will be any progress on the projects until the move is done and dusted. Once said dust has finally settled I can add to it by beginning sanding through the Christmas break.
Fear not, I shall be keeping an eye on the boards and passing comment when I can. Got a lot of catching up to do!

Hope things are settling down. Last I heard the naughty corner had moved well north of the city...
Looking forward to see how these builds go, so will wait with baited breath.

Time's wingéd chariot doth move swiftly 'gainst the tides.... and before we know it, Gollum's birthday will be here. Hopefully I can get it done in time...
To whit: the neck is now stained (with leftover Hot Auburn base). Top coat to follow when dry.
Also the top of the body is sanded and coated with one application of HA base to pop the grain. This will be cut back before applying the sunburst.
Liking it so far...

wicked Bassguy that colour combo should work well. Quite a difference in colour shades so blending the burst will be a challenge but sure you will be up for it !
