Cheers, thanks a lot

Hi, As the title says. Does anyone know of a decent but inexpensive audio interface for Ipad, lightning input. Just want to record some bass and guitar into garageband. Cheers

Only listened to that first one. Derivative or not it's a good tune. Interesting guitar part. Enjoyed it. Derivative is a sliding scale anyway. Most stuff is to some extent.

I've, once again, sanded it back. This time to 180. Gonna try the wudtone again this week. Wish me luck

😆 it bloody better be

Update in the longest build ever. I sanded it down to 40, then back up to 240. Bought a new Wudtone finish. Did the first coat, yet again, it didn't take. E mailed Wudtone they said try at 180. So I've sanded it back to 40. I'm gonna bring it back to 180. I'm so pissed off its untrue. I've got a feeling that it won't take again. I bought the kit from pitbull. The bodies in their kits aren't suppose to be sealed or treated. This was a custom order and I think it must have been as its just not taking the oil. There seems to be a shine in certain parts of the wood and I've been down to 40 grit twice now. If it doesn't take this time it's being sprayed with Molotow spray paint.

Does anyone know ow anything about random orbital Sanders? I used at 40 grit to remove the finish and it seemed fine. I had a go with 80grit today and it doesn't seem to be doing anything. Hardly any dust coming off the sandpaper on it doesn't seem like it's been used thought I've gone over the body lots of time. I'm essentially using the weight of the machine. If you put too much pressure it stops spinning. I've tried it on fast speed and slow. Doesn't seem to be doing anything. Any advice would be welcome Cheers

Think I'm gonna go with the surf green. Gonna try and get it sanded to 240 over the week

It's going to take forever to get all the last flecks of finish out of the grain so I've spoken to Wudtone. If I use a pigment dye, once I get most of the finish off, that will cover over the previous. So I'm gonna go with one of these Not sure which yet. Does anyone have any advice on contour sanding the edges? it would have to be hand sanded.

Just realised I started this thread 3 years ago today 😂

Well I've gone at it with 40 grit and it's beginning to get the rest out. Hope the body doesn't end up matchstick thin! I imagine I'll have it back up to 180 in a week or so.

That's the first pass on 80 grit. If every remnant needs to go i will have to go down to 40 grit then come back up thru to 180.

Thread Resurrection! Basically the wudtone finish didn't take well at all. Hardly any went on and it looked a weird green as opposed to what it should have been. I put this down to me not preparing it well enough but who knows. Anyway, it pissed me off so I sacked it off. Realising its a sanding down back to bare wood which I couldn't be bothered with at the time. Now 18 months later, I'm ready to try again. Sand it down and try the customer finish again. If this fails its spraying time. I've bought an orbital sander and started to sand it down. My question is Doesn't every single trace of the previous oil finish have to be removed from the grain for the next oil finish to stick? Cheers
