    im a little bit worried when you guys say weeks and months, because the paint I have says "handle after 1 hour" and the clear coat says "handle after 24 hours" when i see days, weeks, and months, it scares me, are my paints correct? btw, my paint is "Krylon Interior-Exterior Black" and my clear coat is "Krylon Triple-Thick Crystal Clear Glaze"

    ok here is the deal, i've never really finished any wood, excet for random sparay painting on a wooden go-kart i made, but i never put any clear coats or anything on that, here's my question, what will give me a good shine on my guitar after i paint it and how long will it take before i can handle the guitar?

    I know what you mean about the headstock on the Dean. On the one hand, by the look of it, you know it's a Dean. But, I don't like it on a V. V's need that pointy spear like headstock to look right. Maybe I'm just an old timer. it's almost the flying v is flying in 2 directions, and the headstock and the v are gonna crash, well, i guess its not that funny, lol

    metallic blue can be made with silver paint in the first color layer, and translucent blue paint over it, then follow the "poor boys burst" tutorial, like he said, practice on scrap first.

    thats what i thought about the template, i just needed a second opinion, cuz i wasnt positive, thanks, and about the material, i was probably going to use posterboard, its pretty sturdy and its cheap, thanks again, ill be sure to take pictures--jack

    im sitting here looking at the poor boys burst tutorial made by brian, and what it ays to do is put push pins in an inch or so from the edge of the template, my question is, would the bottom of the pins make a mark on the burst, or are they too deep for the paint to reach, also, the burst in the picture is a relatively thin burst, is there a way to make it thicker? thanks bunches - jack

    scratch that-- i just came up with a better idea, with help from my sister, but i dont know if it is possible, im wanting to leave that paint on, and add a black burst around it, so would it be possible to leave everything on it thats already on it(clear coats, paint, everything), and add a black burst, then put more clear coat on it? anyone...?

    does anyone know where i could find an illustrated tutorial on how to make a cherry sunburst?? ive looked at the one at reranch, but there isnt enough pictures, and its confusing (im a man, im pretty visual, lol) so does anyone have any other suggestions? this is my guitar if neccessary... thanks... -jack
