Now, bear in mind this is the back, which isn't figured as strongly as the front, and is therefore a little bland....

..... but I'm absolutely rapt with the colour; it's a deep, rich green which, with the black as a grain filler underneath it, looks just lovely!

Still a long ways to go, but looking at what I started with, I'm a little pleased with the progress to date!

I'm thinking I may get the black around the edges done by a pro with an airbrush.... Thoughts??

Gotta see how you airbrush the burst........ Making me want to do a walnut burst on the ibanez..... Just a simple black but man that would make the bindings POP........

Man,That looks really good :up:
Huge transformation.
Cant wait to see it finished.
Definitely use an airbrush on the burst, spray can will put too much down too quickly, which makes it nearly impossible to do a proper blend.
Be a super shame to mess it up now :bawl:
