Hi all, I just bought a flame maple top Ibanez as a fun project, i want to do something a little unique with it.
I saw some amazing finishes as kiesel guitars and one in particular i'd like to try has a blue dye on part of the top only and a different color on the rest with a hard line between the 2 colors. i don't know how you would do that, since i expect simply using masking tape wouldn't work, the dye will bleed under the tape.
how to create a hard edge when dying a maple top?
