Time to put some life back into this thread, as the guitar is nearing completion.
Body primed and sanded smooth with 400gr sandpaper. Ready for paint.
Neck shaped, contoured, fretmarkers installed, Myka type* side markers installed, headstock primed and ready for paint.
*Myka type side markers = Side markers installed in silver tube, so silver circle appears around the sidemarker.
Currently reading up on paint, paint guns, and paint booths, as thinking about shooting this one at home.
Shopping list so far:
Sata MiniJet IV 1.1 (Base)
Iwata LPH 400 1.3 (Clear)
Going DIY painting route as wanting complete control over project and no longer wanting to be dependent on outside help.
