Great build fella! nice results so far ;-) Lots of good gear to work with by the look of it, and a firey passion..splendid stuff!... Ive gotta similar set-up to you, and have had great results with the cheaper sprayguns...as long as you dont rush things in prep the end result is usually marvellous!....

Good for you, man. No fear. Are you getting paint from Manchester? Looks like you might already have some ideas. After trying several brands today I am really starting to lean toward my tried and true (Reranch). I bought somebody else's Pelham and it pools in a fucked up way. Not happy. Hey DGNR8! ...

I like your new build, but feel sorry for your Lp project. I think it is going to be cool, minus the Strat neck. Did you make this to be a bolt on or a set neck? You can pick up an Eden neck fairly cheap. No sure what scale you made if for, but I am guessing 25.5" cuz of the strat neck. http:/...

Thanks! I'm not a fantastic woodworker by any means, but it's a learning curve ;-)
I hope to create a cool end result by taking my time...
Was looking at Coral or Sherwood Green for finishes but stumbled on the Surfburst..I think it's different..like the Marlin Burst...
