  • This video is awesome! Thank you so much uploading!

    Quick question: When spraying the red, how do you keep the lacquer from running? It seems as though you're doing a constant spray instead of passes. Thought this contributed more to runs or sags.

    Hope you can clarify!

  • I'm not applying too much actual material, it's fairly low volume. I've done it enough to tell when I'm getting too much on and am going to get a run.

  • @KingBlossomGuitars Where did yo get the vintage amber paint?

    

  • The amber is Stew-Mac Vintage Amber

  • My telecaster have a clear lacquer seal, if i use the vintage amber on it it will works like in your case? is very important to know it in order to use your technique please...

  • If you are wanting to color the wood, you need to strip it down to bare wood and then use the vintage amber etc. If you are doing a vintage amber burst, then just fine sand your guitar and do the burst and follow with clear to seal it all up.

  • Very Nice, Thanks so Much!!

  • When you do these type of videos, it would have been nice to insert a still photo of the results of the progress at each step and one of the end result.

    I mean, I just watched you dye/lacquer the back & sides in black but never saw the end results until this video when you flipped the body over!
