DP First Build

[LADAVE]

Hi

Invent is pretty kind - I haven't been game to see if I can replicate it - if you make enough mistakes you will eventually make one that works, I've made a lot - been painting sanding changing my mind - always seems to involve more sanding and painting.

Have finally worked out how to get a decent finish using spray cans - and have used a lot of them. Hopefully will have this thing finished inside 12 months.

I did say to the other half "maybe I could do this on the whole guitar" I'm not doing that.............

Very nice! I'd say it was worth waiting 2 years 10 days for the reveal!

Thanks McCreed

The missus thought that was very funny.
I was happiest that it sounds good - still working on the set-up but it will get there

Yeah, there's almost nothing worse than a guitar that looks great, but is an absolute tone turd!
