Howdy fellow builders.
Well my wonderful postie delivered my PBG kit today.
My plan is Mahogony stain on the back and neck with Tru-oil sealer and top coats.
The Maple spalt on the body and headstock is to get a dark Yellow stain with Hard Shellac clear coats. The dark Yellow is a mix of 5 parts Yellow and 2 parts Brown water based powder dyes which I have found to bring out figuring quite nicely without being to over the top nor requires much sanding.
The second pic is with the body damped down in the hunt for glue marks...lol
