    Hey there Jim, Thanks for the technical reply. I want the beautiful grain of the ash to show through the finish. How thin should the white base coat be? I don't want it to hide the grain of the wood. And we are talking about "Butterscotch blonde, aren't we? I know that Fender has another color they describe as Blonde that is much different than Butterscotch blonde. Thanks again for the info. JohnCarroll

    Hello to everyone !! Great site here and thank you for having me. I am pretty much a newbie at guitar building and found that it is indeed an addicting hobby. I have built 3 or 4 telecaster style guitars now and I want to finish one in that elusive Butterscotch Blonde. I have been refinishing automobiles for some 30 years now so, needless to say, I'm not afraid to apply finish to the wooden body of a guitar. My question is: Does anybody know if there is a formula for this color? (the body is made of ash) I know that reranch has this color in a spray can, but I am looking for another route or a formula that I can mix myself. Anyone ?? Thank you in advance, JohnCarroll
