sexybeast Posted April 19, 2005 Report Share Posted April 19, 2005 I'm making a Basswood body body and my question's simple. Does Basswood hold stain well and look good finished or do I have to paint it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gun Posted April 19, 2005 Report Share Posted April 19, 2005 It tends to absorb. Solid finish is the standard on basswood. If you want a stained top, try to look the tut on Brian on adding veneer. Bye Gian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Rosenberger Posted April 19, 2005 Report Share Posted April 19, 2005 Basswood is very plain. It imo doesn't look good stained and is better suited for a Solid color Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
