    Hey Guitar addicts. Need some help from the best. Before you do a veneer job do you have to treat the wood with any type of wood sealer? How do you go about venering the sides and back of a guitar? I am working with a flat body les paul which is almost finished being completely stripped of its original paint. Once its comepletely stripped i will sand the body and then begin with veneer job. I want to veneer the whole body to make it look really nice. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks People.

    Working on a flat body les paul. It is not made out of the best wood and I want to do a stain job on it. I am going to veneer the top and possibly the back. Since the wood is layered i dont want to stain the side because it will look rather ugly. What can I go about doing to make the sides nice? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    The only reason why Iwant keep the body and neck is for a more sentimenal reason. It was the first guitar that I ever owned and I feel it would be nice to redo it and keep the sentiments with it. Though it may not be the best to work with I feel it can come out nice with time, dedication and a little help. Maybe i need to go with painting the guitar instead of stain since the wood is not really of a good caliber for staining.

    I curenttly own a epiphone les paul special from 1997. It was the first guitar I ever owned. The guitar has been out of commission now for some time and now i wanted to redo all of it. I have taken off all the hardware. I need some help on the methods of stripping the paint off the body and the neck. I would like to stain the guitar but i dont know if the wood is good enough for it. Will staining work? Also I want to sand the body maybe add some contours since it is totally flatbody any tips on that? Any help will be greatly appreciated! thanks!
