Inisheer Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 Looks great! It's very classy, with the abalone strip and variation on the f-hole. Have any in progress shots? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capu Posted February 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 this is a very pretty guitar!! i love the red why is it your last? Sorry, I mean that this is my last guitar in cronological order. I'm working now on a strat-like guitar. Probably that will be my last guitar because I have no more room at home :-( I need to sell something but I love them all... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capu Posted February 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 Simply beautiful !! Congratulations !! I'd love to see some progress pics. How did you stain the top ?? Do you have any close-ups ?? I'll post some pics in the next days. I stained the top using 2 colors: I initially stained with brown (mahogany brown) then when dry I washed it with a dump cloth removing as much as possible of the color. At he end, when dry, I applied the dark red (cherry). That's it. Let me know if you have any question ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capu Posted February 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 I forgot to say that the guitar has a Fishman piezo bridge that is activated by pulling a knob (the piezo volume) ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
