Hm... Not really happy to read your about your negative experience with black ink because I had planned to use this to recreate a Les Paul Red Widow type of top. And strange also because I have seen numerous YT clips (from Fredyen.com, BigDGuitars and Jamsession.tv) who just are using simple stamp ink for their tops (quilt or flamed veneer).
So, I'm a bit confused right now.
Sorry for going off-topic.

I'd assume that Ink Stamp ink comes in various formulations, some of which are better than others for staining. But permanent fountain pen ink should be OK. I'd imagine Ink Stamp ink is made so that it doesn't dry up easily when exposed to the air on an open pad. Anything just water-based wouldn't take that long to dry out.
Thanks Waz, I think you might have the right formula for me.... Now if I can stop spending my savings on my Bass, I could get this kit to happen.
Getting closer to pulling the trigger on this project after today. As expected the call came last night to do an extra shift inside this hot dirty dusty (lots of lead in that dust) cooler drum. Lots of aches and pains for my trouble, but the some of the extra cash can go towards my "guitar shaped toffee apple".......
what exactly do you do for a living that requires you to get inside that thing?

Emergency Response Officer.
Because of the hazardous nature of the vessel, I had to be in there with the guy welding up the cracks just in case he got into difficulty. There was another guy sitting outside just watching both of us..... Both of whom are paid far more than me.....
I also fight fires hang of ropes and do First Aid. But most of the time I do mundane tasks, waiting for the "good jobs".

First aid or paramedic skills required?

Not quite to Paramedic level, cert3 plus advanced rescuss, plus a few extra bits thrown in.
And this is based somewhere near Hobart? It almost looks like bits at a gold mine.

Nyrstar. Zinc Works. Very close to Hobart. Google it.
Its quite big...... Uses something like 10% of southern Tassie's electricity. And accounts for a larger percentage of the State's income.
