hi im new to this forum got alot of tips from diffrent articals and think its excellent.
ive just started a project refinishing a bass guitar that has been gathering dust for a few years.Being my first project i thought i would serch the web to find some advice and i stumbled across this site. i read the tutorial on material finishes and thought that was a great idea.so decided i would look for some materials on the web the first place i looked was ebay as i use the site alot.and their i found many different materials in all different colours a designs.
I decided on a few different designs that i liked but obviously could only have one.If only their was a way of seeing the finished results before actually doing any work, that could help me decide which material to buy.
Any how i had this idea.I saved a picture of a guitar from the web and then saved pictures of the materials ,using Adobe photoshop i opened the picture of the guitar and removed the paint colour from the body and head stock so wher the paint was it is now transparent,now using the material photo i placed that underneath the body area and did the same to the neck area. cheak out the picture.
