Leading up to Halloween is a good time to purchase fabric. Lots of spooky themes.

Very true - didn’t really cross my mind - actually was trying to find something with a pattern on it but ended up likening this when I was there

It will look very cool. You may want to start honing those Jerry Garcia licks now ;-)

Hi All,

Been considering how to finish this guitar and have decided on a fabric top. Went and had a look today at some fabric and came across this little number. This is definitely not going to be everyone’s cup of tea but must admit that I did love a good skull design in my younger years

That looks more suitable for a guitar top than any other use you could find for it.

So true! But all types make the world go round

So with the body sanded flat it’s time to try and bond the fabric to the wood and start this build.

So basic method was use some wood glue to stick the fabric onto the body of the guitar and then a small layer of epoxy on top.

Let’s see how this turns out

Fabric is a great idea. I once covered a Les Paul hollow body with green velvet and was planning on doing a Tele-style in denim at some stage but haven't gotten around to it.
I never thought of doing a layer of epoxy on top. That's going to look awesome.

Ohh there is a pretty neat Denim Tele in the Diary area, I think Marcel made it?

Well growing up is highly overrated, I love it!

Someone did an Asian, lely/jasmin pattern recently, turned out great! Can't wait to see yours.
