I have an idea for how to stain my next guitar if/when I ever do another.
My first guitar was simply covered in Tru-Oil with no staining of the veneer.
For my next guitar I'm thinking of using a brown stain on the quilted maple veneer, similar to this photo that I found. I want it a bit darker around the edge and lighter towards the center. But I'd like the fade to be more dramatic so that in the center there would be no stain at all. In the middle you'd see the quilted maple in its unstained, natural form. Is this possible?
