    Gluing veneer

    I remember reading a discussion about different sorts of titebond and some being better than others, which one would you choose? Is their liquid hide any good?

    Original Titebond user here as well. Although a novice working with veneers the few jobs I have done have turned out ok. I think as long as you don't play the guitar out in the pouring rain it should be ok.
