GuitarMonkeyGuitarMonkey Frets: 1882
in Making & Modding
I spent the morning reprofiling the neck of the guitar I made.

I had rushed the original build as I wanted to get finished by the deadline and I'm much happier with the feel of the neck now.

I'm going to refinish it too, maybe in a different colour scheme if I can sand out the stain in the maple top.

Or maybe leave the top and have a natural mahogany back and maple neck...?

    I like that top.

    Remind me, what type of finish did you use on it?
    Having trouble posting images here?  This might help.

    Thanks - I'm not a huge fan of quilt and don't know why I used it! 

    The finish is good old nitrocellulose lacquer.
