Redwood 00 finished

Post by Kenny Wiebusch » Mon Aug 01, 2022 2:44 pm

I decided on lacquer. I sanded it to 1000 grit and burnished it with 0000 steel wool. I really like the look and will do it again. Buffing out shows every flaw.

This is a link to a video of my friend Mike Monroe playing this guitar. The video was too large to post. It sounds huge and Mike lays it down!

Excellent man! Great looks, great sound.
Question: how thin did you make the back? ( I have granadillo, but it sooo darn heavy. Have to take it down, quite a bit)

Thanks Kenny, that is ballpark where I usually go, but I think with the massive set I have, I go a few hundreds thinner.
