Dave made this guitar recently on the build your own custom guitar course. He wanted a gloss finish which means leaving it with us to spray. He left a picture which we used for colour comparison and I think Billy did a great job matching it. The rest of the guitar will be tinted with just a drop of amber to give it a slightly aged look- I will post more pics when we have done this but first we need confirmation from Dave that the colour is good before we will continue.

Billy did the colour tests today for the fake binding and the mahogany for the rest of the guitar…We also took the guitar outside for a picture as the colour looks slightly different.
Update: 15July 2011
Added some more pics of the guitar inside and outside and the first colour test for the back.
