Jehle Posted August 21, 2003 Report Share Posted August 21, 2003 I can follow the link there, but for some reason it's not showing up. http://www.geocities.com/bobnickelson/yea.JPG Derek and I both have a reason to hate XP now. Now I can see it. Bugger Microsoft. ----------------------- Anyway, from the looks of it you could stain the wood blue and then follow the directions for the poor boys burst to do the black edge. Then clear coat and you're done. Here's the tut... http://www.projectguitar.com/tut/burst.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGM Guitars Posted August 21, 2003 Report Share Posted August 21, 2003 it's not an XP problem, it's a geocities problem, you can't do img links with geoshitties stuff for some reason. I do all my bursts freehand with the airbrush, spray your lightest color first, then burst in your darker edges afterwards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveq Posted August 21, 2003 Report Share Posted August 21, 2003 I don't know about the blue sunburst but I do know it's not XP and most likely not MS. I'm using the supposedly bug-free, crashless, God-like Linux (yeah right) with Netscape and it does the same thing. Maybe it's something about the way the link/pic was inserted?

Brian Posted August 22, 2003 Report Share Posted August 22, 2003 It is possible to do a burst using dye and rubbing it on the body. The technique is quite simple but not as easy to master if your just starting out. There are a few tutorials on the subject over on the Guitar ReRanch site. You'll need to do a little digging to find out which one's but I'm sure they are there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveq Posted August 22, 2003 Report Share Posted August 22, 2003 you guys never actually read what I say do you LMAO!!!!!!! I must have started my reply and had it open while you were posting yours. If you look at the times, they are pretty close. I sometimes have to hide this window when my rude co-workers stop by my desk and prevent me from getting some real work done . I see quite a bit of MS bashing in my line of work and try to straighten some of it out when possible. Now, back to my real job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
