thanks guys for the imput. ill keep all of that in mind for my next project. in the second pic the marks you see on the top is actually from the pick hitting the top when playing.
i thought about grain filler, but as i said i modeled it after a wal and some times they just do two cost of hard acrylic, leaving the grain showing and giving it a more natural feel. so that why i tried it. im defently not gunna try and stain it like i did, again. on the back of the neck there was a nick and i put some filler in it, and i was hoping it wouldnt show so much, but it does.
i have a question. how do you guys finish your necks? with lacquers, what? i lacquered mine but if feel kinda sticky i guess you would say.
thanks again guys, Jay
