    That's a great looking Tele body. At first I didn't think I was going to like it. But when you hit it with the sand and sealer and the grain popped , man I was hooked. Great job on that finish.

    Very nice looking body. The grain looks good subtle but there for sure. With a semi gloss finish on this body it would really nice.

    This looks a good bit darker than most transparent black finishes I see on "mainstream brand" guitars. Like their promo pics will have a nice dark transparent black look and then in IRL shots the guitars are washed out grey. You did a much better job.

    Interesting seeing the different approach with the air brush vs the hand applied feathering. Thanks for showing it.

    How would you go about getting a glossy finish out of this guitar?? Would you use Polyurethane over the sanding sealer?
