It looks like you will be finished soon,hope we get too see the finished product. It looks like you have learned alot about painting,and even a temporary one time project is a thrill. You will feel it when someone complaments you on the finish.

Good for you detman,looks like a decent guitar. happy ngd!

I am in the same camp with zurf on this subjuct,not all subjects though.

jjj I agree the prep is the most important thing too be done,and then follow the instructions on the paint.russell the can will let you know what too do ie prep. room temp etc. russ you should practice on some other piece of wood too give you a preview. I did this with the cars I have painted. ( differant paints and tempratures etc. ) Temp can be critical. Also if you get to small areas not too be painted and that will not allow you too tape for overspray you can use a small bit of petrolloem jelly too coat it and that will keep it from being painted.

Russ,I think it would be best too get all areas to be sanded and painted as clean as possable,I wash cars two or three times before I sand them,this prevents any waxes or most oils from penetrating the surface as they get washed away. before you paint you might want too get a tack clouth to pick up all the dust on the surface to be painted.

Amy that should be called a nightmare not a dream,hopeyou do not have anymore.

My first was also a Sears silvertone Electric around 1963-64. It was a Beatles thing back then.

Zurf if you get another racing slug hold on too it and I will challenge you with my racing turtle.

yea thet need too work on getting our country rightand economy. Seems like chordie has been compliant with all the music publishers and artists etc. most people can not get the Beatles music  in the U.K. and alot of songs have been taken down on site as chordie has been within the law,I know chordie put up a notice here awile back concerning song copyrights and removing them if they needed too do so.

Hi hanna,I for one think the government shoud be working on Important issues like our economy and jobs the unemployment  the national debt. Right now we do not even have a budget and they keep stalling that,they need too adress those things ,not fooling around with cencorship. I think chordie has been abiding by the laws we have now.

Thats good I need to put some new strings on so I may give it a try,thanks for the info and are these guitars rare or really old she did not know,it was her fathers guitar she has her own it is an Estaban one of the newer ones,I played it sounded good andplayed good for the price. The old Estaban I tried elseware was a piece of junk.

Pix, you are right,it has two holes per metal tuner too place the strings into,I did not even notice that until you mentioned it. What is the purpose of the dual holes,do you know? Thanks all of you roger,cam,pete,jjj and zguitar.
