Sorry this has happened... I don't know the answers but hope you can fix it

Sight Reading Practice today - Yuck.... And sadly no ponies - just a Mustang - arf arf

Thanks for the comments. I should have said that the lacquer went on with a gun in a neighbours body shop, but when I posted it was nearing dinner time and I was peckish... sorry to mislead.

There are some great threads and advice for doing refins here and I had the time recently to attempt my first. Big thanks to mixtape for his Broncomaster refin thread. - Hope the stand marks get fixed easily. And a MASSIVE thanks to cur for his advice in that thread. Also the excellent rodvonbon com...

Hilarious and true

I've been a bit gassey of late for a Mustang... Thanks for these words of wisdom. Gas cured

How great is this... thanks for posting

^^^ Great video... does make me wonder as this is pretty easy why the pedals are not made like this at the factory?

Nice present. Birthdays are the best. Have a good one.

+1 for a wider strap. Cheap solution and makes a big difference. Your Tele sounds like a great guitar to play

Looks good

I'm too new to have caught the pauk1k saga the 1st time - essential reading

Lustrous

Thanks for sharing this..

Its pretty mmmm

+1 for Wizard and Mojo, but maybe consider Aaron Armstrong (son / grandson of Kent / Dan Armstrong). Definitely worth a call. He can custom build/wind to what you want, or has standard stock. Good luck

It'd be rude not to.... I'm pretty jealous

And also... I know I said no more red guitars, and that was why I refinished the Bronco in the first place, but that Tele bass is hot. Thanks - the bass came to me this colour, and although the guy I bought it from said it was original - I'm pretty sure it isn't. I do like it too. I have some LaBel...

Thanks, thats a good insight as I hadn't given the fretboard radius much consideration... I think I'll seek one out next time I'm near a music shop and have a plonk.
