you can still do it, but with transucent painst like I mentioned on top. Go to http://www.lgmguitars.com/splash_guitars.html he paint all his jobs, no stain there, so it is quite possible to do. The only problem is that I find that stains bring a lot more depth to the maple... but in Jeremys guitar there are no flaws visible so it is quite a good choice
Thanks for the info maiden! I will probably use the translucent blue. On another thread you have a translucent blue faded to black. What solid black paint did you use?
On this saga if I use the black sloset epoxy do you figure it will look pretty good with the blue metalcast?

Thanks for the information. That is what I was afraid of. Any idea on adding veneer to the top of the existing veneer? Would it be best to just sand off the existing veneer and then adding the new?
Unless you have a vacum press it's not worth it. I would imagine a lot of bending involved. It really isnt a project for a first timer to veneering. Take a look at this thread:

Thanks alot for this information. I was looking to do a blue die to black that I saw on a Moore guitar. I guess I will do it with the can instead of dye.
Thanks again.

Ok any one have any experience with a saga ht-10 that can tell me how much trouble it would be to strip the sealer off of it? I picked one of these kits up for a first run before I read about the sealer. I am wondering how difficult it is to remove the sealer to get to a dyeable finish. In reading on the forums the vanier is very thin. Would it just be better to re-sell this on ebay or can it be done. Anyone with experience here would be appriciated.
On a side note ... being new to the building side of things I have found the information in these forums a HUGE help.
Thanks in advance!

That is exactly the one I was talking about. I have a friend who was saying the the polyurathane can kill some of the sound from the guitar. Any truth to that? With all the hardware I am putting on this thing (replacing all of the gear with good stuff) I don't want to kill the sound because of the clear coat.
