W1_Pro Posted October 10 Author Share Posted October 10 On the laquered fingerboard tip...has anyone done one? I assume you put the frets in first and then give it a seeing to with a can of clear coat? It all sounds so simple when you write it...

W1_Pro Posted October 10 Author Share Posted October 10 I'm also going to leave the finish on (I hope). I quite like the dark green colour, I've given it a clean and its actually quite nicely battle scarred. So I'm going to buff it and see where we get too. Pics to follow.

Pros and cons but both work OK 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W1_Pro Posted October 11 Author Share Posted October 11 Thanks Andy. When the time comes I'll give that a go. Much sanding yet to be done though! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted October 11 Share Posted October 11 Proper bargain that. Following this with interest. I remember trying out a US Curlee in Hickies Music in Reading, back in the day. I'm sure it was double P, but my memory might be playing tricks on me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W1_Pro Posted October 11 Author Share Posted October 11 Thanks Rich, Curlee did a double P, the Curbeck, pic of mine further up the thread.
