    New colours

    Dingobass has been busy in his mad professor lab and he's come up with two new colours...

    Bondi Blue

    I know he's put a lot of work into developing these colours, so I hope you all embrace them and give them a go... we'd love to see how they look on some finished guitars.
    Cheers,

    Adam

    Hey Saurus

    I am currently testing a few Purples ATM.

    Stay tuned for progress updates on Atherton Amethyst.......

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

    I'm testing out the Tarkine green on an ash ST body so I'll post some pics after the next coat. When I get time I'll try the bondi blue and Atherton Amethyst.
    DB has been a busy mad professor haha
    Might try the purple on a LP Paulownia kit

    Bondi blue looks unreal mate. I would love to use it for the pine Tele I'm hacking up atm, but as it's a test piece I want to spend as little as possible on it. I'll probably end up stuffing it up haha. Question is, I'm planning the burnt finish like the strat I'm doing, Bondi blue, but as a top coat, can I use the wipe on poly varnish over dingotone or will they hate each other. I've just got tonnes of it left from the prs build.

    wipe on poly should be fine Andrew over DT. I've used tru oil over DT many times and had no issues. I'll just go pour you another pint in the naughty room mate ! haha

    as a taste this is what an early version (early March) of Bondi blue looked after 2nd deep coat. This was my SG that ended up grey/black. The FV is Wayne's he's since put two solid blue coats on.
    With any luck the new Bondi Blue should look even better
