jmac Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 That was really good work. I have a guitar i'd like to try buffing out. Nice job on the video too.congrats on the guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trouble Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 I'm not going to do any kind of re-finishing on the back of the body or the headstock....if the headstock holds, it will be "beater" or "bastard child" if you will.... it will look good from the front and will burn the retinas out of your eyes when you flip it over I love that idea Brent, those battle scars look hard earned, no reason to hide them. Chicks dig scars right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trouble Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 My father taught me to repair gun stocks in the same fashion. Cool! I replaced the stock on one of my Marlins that I inherited from my grandfather, required a lot of shaping and sanding, never though to try to save the broken stock. I'ts a beautiful peice of mahagony though! Gun stocks and stock repairs are probably right at the same price point as guitar necks and repairs, some very expensive woods sometimes used in guns.

bolero Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Brent that looks fantastic!! I think you should buff the rest of the gtr too those early 150's are killer, I especially like the dark rosewood fretboards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HRB853370 Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Would Elmers Wood Glue work as well at Titebond glue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbetts41 Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Great job & this was an excellent forum post... I can practically hear some heavy tunes seeping from that one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJLII Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Would Elmers Wood Glue work as well at Titebond glue? Elmers used to be the standard for woodworking when I got started in the hobby in the 70's. I think titebond is a bit stronger. Not to hijack, but there's nothing but titebond holding this together: Of course it doesn't have a flame maple top like Brents.......

RJLII Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Sure did. I like to work with wood in my spare time. I just wish I had more spare time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
