    Some sanding later and wetting to show the colours as they would be with oil/finish applied… I think a few more coats of green..

    So, situation this morning before any work:

    Plus, the Blue seems to do a good job of darkening the grain quite a bit anyway…
  4. Bridgehouse
    No, I decided against it, as the black experiment showed a lot of contrast, and I preferred the straight blue then green..
  5. Bridgehouse
    Well, I’ve now given it a sanding down to 1200 grit, and another coat of Blue. Its drying, and if I can get a half decent shot tonight then I will do
  6. Bridgehouse
    To be fair I was surprised this thread wasn’t in the classifieds…
  7. Bridgehouse
    Ze flashing knobs?
  8. Bridgehouse
    What? The new basses? This does not surprise me.
  9. Bridgehouse
    First sanding down done - 120 grit wet and dry. Here it is damped to remove dust and check evenness…
  10. Bridgehouse
    Private Eye quotes now, huh? 😃
  11. Bridgehouse
    Also started the long and drawn out process of Danish Oil on the neck..
  12. Bridgehouse
    Yeah, back looks a bit different - it’s cos it was done first and thus had dried more. Will post shots when it’s dried.
  13. Bridgehouse
    Enough is enough. I can’t keep staining bits of offcut. So, here it is with the first coat of Phthalo Blue…
  14. Bridgehouse
    I’m trying another blue/green as I am also leaning this way… maybe even with a black base sanded back then blue, and then a green highlight
  15. Bridgehouse
    Coat! Out!
  16. Bridgehouse
    Yeah. I quite like that too. I’ve tried a few more since then as well. There’s lots of nice colour combos but I am thinking either Ph Blue/Black or Ph Blue/Green
  17. Bridgehouse
    A few more for your consideration - these are under artificial light tho..
  18. Bridgehouse
    Got me knobs out for some comparators. Have done a bunch of other colour combos (post sanding) which I’ll photo later..
  19. Bridgehouse
    Just for completeness, here's the other colours as a single set with the same dilution in the sun:
  20. Bridgehouse
    Only one coat tho.
  21. Bridgehouse
    I’ve got a few that I want to try - bit open to suggestions now.. any colour combos or things you’d like me to try with the stains?
  22. Bridgehouse
    Final one for today - Added Phthalo Blue to the sanded Black:
  23. Bridgehouse
    Nope definitely did crimson…
  24. Bridgehouse

  25. Bridgehouse
