I have a Warmoth Regal that has been sitting in my closet for a couple years now. I have tried a few times to dye/stain it, but have failed at getting the results I am interested in. At this point, between life and work, I am more than willing to shell out some extra cash towards a competent...

I was doing some more searching regarding tips on how to get this type of finish. Someone on youtube post a vid of them attempting the Boneyard/Aged Tiger finish and they stated that the best way to do it is to do black dye for the flame, but then use a tinted lacquer for the yellow/amber. I...

Thanks for the reply. I am not planning on using a mix, but merely a spray can (reranch) for clear coating as I do not have a spray gun. Could I still just do a quick coat of tinted clear mixed in between regular clear and get the same results?

I am about to pull the trigger on a new body and am mulling between a Regal or a VIP. When searching for examples of finished VIPs it seems as if there are some slight differences in the body shape, specifically around the upper horn/cut, it appears longer in some pics and shorter in others? Is...

Hello. I am currently planning my new build and have a question. With all my other builds I have always used a Fender hardtail and your run-of-the-mill string trees/retainers for the 1st and 2nd strings. This time around I am utilizing a TOM and I would like to avoid those traditional 1st/2nd...
