Am painting my old Bronco bass today. Apple Red.

Re sprayed it a bit, still looks fugly.

All smeared and stuff, but kind of charming at the same time.

Drying right now, might assemble it later.

Looking at getting some artwork done on it, to make it look less appalling

Nah, I've just been sanding it down to raw wood the past few days. I've got a coat of tru oil on it right now, just waiting for it to dry. Should have some pics later on.

Project almost finished, will get some pics up tonight. Unfortunately, I don't have any strings for it. It came out better than expected.
