A bit of fancy back-masking and it’s nearly ready for primer. I’ll just mask off the rest of the guitar properly first before a put paint in my gun. Attachment : 2882835C-95FF-43D1-8FFD-C1E82469E...

Next time I will glue the neck in and then put a cap over the whole body top to cover the joint. “It is the only way…” Yeah, if you don’t want a pickguard or a neck pickup I think that’s the way to ...

That’s a lot of work @boo!

I applied a second coat if filler (after sanding the first one back a bit) and sanded it fairly flat. I’ll probably get it spot on with the next filler coat. Attachment : 6C9CFFE8-C19C-4500-B970-...

very cool @boo. You've got all the bagpress toys. I think I need to befriend him. 🙂 I've only got one of his toys. Maybe in time. The guitar is looking awesome.... for an electric. he he he.

Very neat @boo. Looking forward to seeing how this turns out. 🙏🎶🎸🙂

Great work as always @boo, that’s pretty black! I noticed that you have one of the newer THR 10’s, is that a II or III and how do you like it? I’ve had the 10X for years and I love it.

Time to put the two main parts together permanently, neck into body. Dry clamp first, then add glue and clamp for real. Attachment : 525640A7-E1A9-49EA-BE67-E1C33D41CAF6.jpeg Attachment : ...

I couldn’t resist another test fit. There is no matt lacquer on the body yet and I need to do a final route of the neck joint once it’s glued in. Once I’ve glued the neck in and routed, I’ll fill any ...

@boo Another top job. I noticed you have a heady 14.3 deg temperature, hope you’re not expecting it to be as warm as that when you move North.

Final sanding was with P600g paper (dry). Then I got some paint on there, I couldn’t resist. The conditions were not ideal but I managed. This is the first coat of black (second actually, the first is...

Look at that velute, mighty fine work there @boo that is some great looking flat black

Now... in canada it is still early. I've only had one cup-o-tea and I've used up my learning for that cup. Thanks boo. I forsee me abusing your knowledge again. @bpower You live in a beautiful countr...

@boo. That makes total sense. I never thought of the tube on the inside not going to the bottom and the bit of fluid that it can't reach. I can see me at some point getting a gravity feed one but for ...

He stored it mostly apart. I have already put it back together and checked as much as I can think of. Even sprayed thinner through it and everything seems to be working. @bpower Excellent. 👍...

@boo. I work in the mechanical side of vehicle repairs and have always been the type to just take apart things to see how they worked and was even able to put the back together and work. The whole fin...

Cheers @boo. You're a good man. Thanks for all the advice. 🎸🙂🎶🙏

I've been following your advice, wet sanding up through the grits, all it takes is time and patience. @robin Whatever you are painting, a guitar, a car, a bike, a garage door, etc….. the top coat is ...
