been putting some laquer on this one, nearly ready for the final coat and then a fit off, pretty happy with it so far. Cheers Rod.Image

Thanks Craig,, It's my first atempt at a burst of any kind, the picture doesn't do it justice actually, i took it with my phone, it's not as red as that.

That's a fine looking archtop Rod. I like the way the colour looks in the photo - kind of like a pink lady apple (my favourite). Did you do another leftie recently, or am I remembering an earlier photo of the same one (or imagining it entirely)? Anyway - nice one!
