Great looks! LOve the warm color and the way you backed the fholes.
That's a nice looking git! I think your nephew will be proud to own it.
thanks for the compliment.I dont know about you guys but I'm always looking to make that EXTRA special guitar,thought I had with this one(olive wood).
I'm always searching for that ONE! lol I like the sunburst finish but seem that I'm not quite there yet.
in second picture that is what sort of finnish I like but how???

did this "bruised apple burst" by just painting the middle red and cardboard shielding and side spraying the edge method .
I did a fade on a bow one time, just started with a small amount of stain on a cloth and kept starting where I wanted it dark and wiping towards the light area. Wiped in the reverse direction with a clean cloth. Lots of light layers made the transition more even. If you can, mess around with some scraps or whatever is handy.
I call BS. That is an absolutely stunning git, mackay! Your nevvie is gonna die when he sees and plays this.
He will love it, looks cool like it needs to be played.
when I made it I wanted to have that worn look,what you see on the neck is not frets but tooth picks glued and rubbed flat.,going to changed that bolt though it doesnt look right.lol
thanks for your kind comments much appreciated.
That's a good looking guitar John only spoiled by that bolt
Nice I like it, it looks cool!
