Sometime i'd like to try a sunburst on a build, but that's another time and type of guitar. I have a couple of arch tops with no finish on them to do someday. Thought i'd try a box guitar first for practice. I got three cans of lacquer. A yellow, red and tobacco brown. Might be fun... Tony took "Willow" to music tonight and everyone liked it. He played it like a drum. It has a good sound.

Nice! There's just something special about the natural look of wood, I think it's the carpenter in me :-)

I like the natural. I've tried to pick contrasting woods. They darken a little with the rub on poly. It will age when it gets old.... :^)

Are you going to stain it at all or leave it natural?

I could fib and tell you that's where i butcher pigeons, but no. Just trim paint. But my spirit fits the spot nice. Otherwise its blunt nosed, like my spirit.

That probably IS blood on the sawhorse.
