jamesj Posted July 25, 2005 Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 What green is that? ← Its called green. ← Ok....... I was asking because I play with car paints and they have 2000 shades of green. Where is this paticular stuff available? I work at Lowes and have not found anything close. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegarehanman Posted July 25, 2005 Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 hahaha....just green. Considering the options for colors these days, I would have expected a name like "forest green in the summer's dusk." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesj Posted July 25, 2005 Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 after a little reseaech I found 'Feast and Watson' is actually a "brand" but its Aussie I belive Cant find it around here So I guess it will be Stew Mac colors for me. I gurss I'll try the Oil stuff since the water based seemed to fade with the strat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegarehanman Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 So why's the top so thick? That's the one thing I don't like. It looks like a top meant for carving that hasn't been carved. Should've stuck w/ 1/4" IMHO. Not my guitar though, not my decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhoads56 Posted July 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 Thats right. Frank wanted a dead flat top, and extra brightness. So this is how we agreed it would be done, he loves it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jehle Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 ← Nice toe! I've never been a fan of green guitars before. This is the first one I've ever seen that I've liked. The wood grain is lush. The color is deep and rich. Excellent, outstanding work. Making a guitar like that must make you very proud. I know I would be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
