Sunbursting Mahogany

[jtmullet]

Hellow all i am building a les paul style guitar an am wanting to sunburst the back to match the maple top like on the lat 70s deluxes how would i go about doing this i would assume i would bleach the mahogany but even if I did that I am unsure if the color would match.

This is kinda whatim goin for

Sunbursting the back is no different than sunbursting the front, same process except you'll porefill the Mahogany, yes, the color will match, and no, no bleaching is required.
