Thanks for that link.

Thanks I will check out YouTube.

I’m so new I don’t even know how to do that. Do I just use the report this thread button?

I don’t think that would work with the materials I have to work with. I will be using. Aniline dye And rattle can 2K clear.

Is this mask on the maple or the mahogany?

How do you seal the area that is going to be taped off before you finish the top and back?

Thanks for the links. I plan on doing a ton of test pieces. I certainly don’t want to give it a try on any expensive body without knowing what I need to do for the process. I’m sure I will be back here with more questions.

I’m looking for a picture of a Stratocaster with a quilted or flame, maple top. I particularly need a shot along the edge where are the maple meets the body to see if it is possible to do a faux binding. Pictures of finished products would be fine as well. I need to know how easy this is to...

Sorry about the post on a zombie thread. I just thought it would be easier than starting a new one.

I’m planning on doing a roasted Ash body with a quilt top veneer and I want to do it in red. Your bass came out wonderful. Did you use dye and clearcoat or did you shoot a tinted lacquer?

Sweet combo!

That sucks, but at least you made the best of it. That Macassar ebony fingerboard neck is killer. Congrats on guitar of the month!!

That looks nice. What happened along the way to make it turn to poo?

That looks nice. Did you do a natural back or staying at Blue?

Thanks Bagman I use dye and then a black rattle can to finish off the burst.

Thanks Rick

I’m using Dyes and rattle can clear lacquer. I’m not sure I can do a transparent color on the back. I do like the idea of a natural mask binding.

This is an old thread, but very useful. The YouTube video explaining how roasted ash turns brown when it is shot with clearcoat has me worried about my next project. I was going to try a Red quilt top over a clear coat roasted ash body, But if roasted ash turns brown I certainly don’t want that...

I just did the same thing on a Stratocaster body. I use the nylon wheel brush in my drill to open the grain up and deepen in the ridges. I skipped the grain filling process and shot directly over the open grain. If you want to see the full process follow this thread on Facebook. Sandblasted
