    spraying clear lacquer.



    I already did it twice, and will repeat it until a can gets empty.
    Don't notice most of my posts are less than 2 lines...

    Well, now that I have a real guitar, I've been looking for a real Strat to replace my old Squier.

    I thought that this was interesting.

    I won't be getting a strat for awhile... if I do get one, it will probably be a fat strat.

    I'll stick to Jackson for now.

    Do the matching headstock Cato!!!

    That axe is soooooo sweet!!!

    Seriously, plain headstocks (although cool) are a dime a dozen. Especially with the paintjob you've done... A matching headstock would be the ultimate!!! IMHO

    who are still talking about the matching headstock?
    forget it.

    I finished coating the body with clear lacquer last week and left the body untouched for a few days.

    and now I'm sanding it with water...

    it was a day off. I was working on this all day because it was a day off. so, I am knackered more than yesterday.


    I polished it up with liquid compounds. I used 3 different types.




    it's now shiny.




    I won't fix the point I sanded too much. it is that inconspicuous.

    Cato, that finish is fuckin' awesome!!! Exactly, what color is it? I mean it's got the Surf-Greenish hue but still different. Also, do the matching headstock...

    Anyway, beautiful work there.
