izzy Posted April 22, 2003 Report Share Posted April 22, 2003 i was wondering if anybody could help me achieve a burnt finish similar to the jem BSB. i have seen the tutorial on how to burn the wood but i was wondering what i should use for staining the wood. does the wood have to be prepared in any way? (wood filler) anything speacial about the finish since it doesnt have a clearcoat? (at least i dont remember it having a clear coat) sorry if these are, for a lack of better words, stupid questions, but im a novice working on my first guitarra. thanx for all the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted April 22, 2003 Report Share Posted April 22, 2003 Actually to get a more uniform finish before you stain it make sure that all of the sealer is off the wood if possible. Typical sanding sealer drys clear and while some really take a stain well, others don't and will cause you to have blotches of off color Yeah been there/done that before. The stain your after is actually Minwax brand "Deep Hunter Green" Remembered that from the Obscure Tech tips thread............ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
