So I started my first build- an LP with a spalted maple top. The online instructions on sanding said to sand and then sand some more. And then when you think you are done, sand some more. I did all this with the appropriate grades of sand paper then used the 0000 steel wool as directed. After I did this I realized that I had sanded about 25% of the maple veneer off(it would have been nice if someone had advised me on this potential problem). I went ahead and started to stain the body with Wudtone Carmine Gypsy Red. The color is pretty nice, but now I'm seeing "rough" spots on the guitar, mainly where the sanded off veneer meets and blends into the underlying wood. Any suggestions? Will these resolve when I place the final top coat on? Kinda frustrated at this point. Please advise.
