    Derek, Thanks for mentioning/listing the time it took when sanding.
    For those of us who've never done this before it can be difficult to judge if things are going as planned, especially with something as simple as sanding the top's finish as we progress through the process and dyes.
    Your videos are like a series of Master Classes for these processes.
    As I sit here in my armchair I'd like to add that you make it look ridiculously easy.
    Once I moved to the bench and enter into the real world the reality of simple mistakes becomes shockingly clear.
    Again, thank you for these videos.

      This is where I've been coming to learn all the fine points of finish. I like Brad Anchovy's channel a lot for finish too, he's really good with techniques, but like you said, this is the master class.

    To me the imperfections in the maple top wood-grain look like Mineral Deposits.
    In some examples the mineral deposits can be very attractive, but now always so.
    Either way the deposits add character to the wood while making it very unique or individual.

    Hi, just a couple of simple questions, if I do a burst on the front and back of a hollow body how much dye do you think that would use (like in ounces I guess, the bottles are 3 ounces) ? Also, does it have to be the leather dyes or do the Angelus suede dyes do basically the same thing? Thanks! Great video!

    Howdy to a fellow Tennessean! Great video! Inspiring! Would the 3oz bottles of dye be enough to do a single guitar? It'd be great if you could add a materials list to the description on what to purchase from Angelus to achieve the same look you've created.

  • @vintagestrings6
    @vintagestrings6 Před 2 lety

    Hello there, can Angeles dyes be applied with alcohol or denatured alcohol so it could be thinned out a little bit to help protect you from going on too dark the first time around? Also would using a tinted lacquer give you a different effect over a plain Maple top. I'm wanting to use a red to come close to a translucent Gibson style color.
    Nice work as well! Thanks in advance.
