  • Perfect!!!

  • GREAT VIDEO!

    The backgroung music catapulted me to heaven and back in 4 minutes flat (is that you playing?)

  • Another response to reumiser - I first grain-fill and seal the wood with epoxy, then apply a water-based finish (several coats) using a brush. Each coat is levelled with fine wet and dry paper before the next is applied. The final coat is rubbed down (using water) to a smooth finish, with 1200 grit wet-and-dry then buffed using a buffing compound. The result is a hard mirror finish equal to any sprayed lacquer. If you don't understand what you're talking about, best to keep your mouth shut.

  • What rock did you crawl out from under "ruemiser"??? I couldn't agree more with dickey335. Varnish has been applied by brush for about 700 years at least, more if you count early lacquered instruments in China. I know we can't all be doctors but you are on the net. Check around bro. I am all about progress but new tech isn't always better than old, we just like to be arrogant and believe that it is!

  • i wish they showed you neck part

  • Aaaah. Very lovely to see your process. Thanks for posting this. I enjoyed it bery much and wish it were even longer and more detailed.

  • In response to ruemiser...How do you think varnish was applied for centuries before spray equipment? Just because something is new to you doesn't make it weird.

  • how do you know where to place the bridge and how do you join the top.

  • so is that in Spain?
