14″ Laminate Archtop mini production run! Color Stage

Two of the four guitars in this run will have a violin inspired paint job. These pics show the process so far. The guitars are given a dark amber stain, a clear coat and then some darkening with some burnt umber lacquer. I top it off with a touch of lemon yellow lacquer to brighten it all up. The arm and belly bevels are  then masked off and painted black. This will look cool later with the ebony hardware in place. Now on to the topcoats, one will be high gloss, one will be a satin finish.
