That fretboard!!!
Looks great. I guess it's your call on touching it up, I can't really see it in the pics. I haven't used aquacoat so I'm not sure how easy it is to blend/touch up.

Sonic, it's acrylic lacquer. So I'm thinking I might scuff just the headstock and hit it with another coat when I spray the body again.

That clear really makes it come alive. Beautiful!
Agree that just a touch up when you do the body is all you'll need. It would be a pain to break out the gun just for that, but sometimes that what it takes. 5 minutes of spraying with 45 minutes of set up and breakdown and cleaning!
Don't recall if you have one, but his is where an airbrush is perfect for touch ups like that. Still have set up & cleaning time but it takes me less than my gun.

I have painted the body and touched up the headstock. While I am waiting for the paint to harden here are a bunch of photos of another project I have on the go at the moment.
