Update... 15 bucks worth of fabric dye and I haven't gotten into the red yet. Actual sunburst finish.

Waiting for the right day to finish.

Wow, that is looking amazing!! So you stain the wood with fabric dye? Why not wood stain?

[JohnnyGoo]

Thats going to look nice.

 

[shreddy bender]

Thanks Johnny! I've been single a long time... Give me a body and I'll play with it!

Really nicely done! I was amazed by how easy you make it look to strip the
poly off. Also, the new bevels look great and turn this into a cool custom bass.

Anxious to see more pix and find out how this project unfolds.
Great thread!

 

[shreddy bender]

Thanks Col! Yes it was easy peasy with a heat gun and putty knife. Quite soothing actually.

 

[shreddy bender]

Rasping is soothing also.

 

[shreddy bender]

Hell, so is sanding!
