JayT Posted October 3, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2021 @ADFinlayson believe it or not I used Rit all purpose dye - usually for tie-dye shirts and stuff. Golden Yellow finished over with poly as always I look for most cost effective options since I still feel I’m learning the craft. I’ll use brand named hardware when I think I’m ready to do a serious build that I’d let a real player touch. did electronics last night and assembled today also carved the nut. Just got a string up and let neck get used to tension for a few days - then fret level and do final set up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayT Posted October 4, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 Strung up, and I’m liking it so far. Just need the string tree to be delivered then can set up— still need to fret level too 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizman62 Posted October 16, 2021 Report Share Posted October 16, 2021 I seem to be seeing a pattern there, are you sure you aren't an industrial builder? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just meant you've got a model of your own and you're productive. Professional builders may not build more guitars in a year than you.
