Hey Nelson, kickass playing. I have Jackson DKMG my mom bought me back in 2005. I wish I was in Canada so I could ship it to you for repairs, my kids dinked the guitar in couple of places. Good job.
i've used nail varnish and clear hardcoat. as long as you don't add too much it settles down and cures reasonably flat. if it's not quite level, you can add a little more clear and you're normally there :) although this was only on poly finish guitars. it's disguised the ding adequately and make it a smooth-to-touch finish rather than a sharp edge.
Seriously though I Love the video good job. I've got a problem with a 60's Gibson J45 that a previous owner drilled 2 holes fitting a strap button directly into the body through the sidewall 🤢 so there's the screw holes and a nasty ring around it to deal with. Any ideas
I had my Strat with a similar ding repaired by drop filling colored lacquer into the damaged area. Problem with this type of damage, is there can be damage under the finish around the visible damage. Takes a ton of patience and as many drops of lacquer, but the finished product is 99% invisible.( If you didn’t know it was there, you’d never know.)

Noticed a little chip in it. Trying to figure how to repair. I found a burnt sienna crayon that looks same color and covered it, yet may be a better way. I like your guitar playing in end.
Seriously, just pay a professional to fix it. You can't do it. It was hilarious to see all the cuts "can't see it from here" (you definitely could) -cut "can't se- cut- (further away)- definitely can't see it from he- what do you guys think?...😂 there's some great videos on doing drop fills and the like. Maybe you could do some research and learn how to do it properly before you make a video on it. Please tell me you're not charging for this.
Been watching your videos. My opinion is you are destroying all the guitars you touch and modify. Their value on the collectors market will be greatly reduced.

Great job! You have great patience! I’d pay for that.
Great job, sounds way better now it's been repaired 😉👍✌️
Dude that's not too bad a repair at all. Those dings on the edge are the hardest ones to repair.
Great job!
Nice and guitar playing is inproved 😊👍
I’d just leave it like that , slowly but surely builds character
Nice work.

We need new vids!
Hey Nelson, are you still alive dude no videos for six months
"Heloooo, I'm Nelson and I'm a guitar persooon. Shred, shreeed."
Looks good to me.
why no vids in 5 months?
Wow…. Still making videos….
Any chance you might pretend we aren't your great grand-kids pooky bear? I lasted 45 seconds before I had to mute you.
You didn't want the "Relic" thing? people pay money for that kind of finish.....(not me)
Why not tell us 1) what grit sanding sticks you are using AS YOU USE THEM?! Frustrating!
