I know zero about building guitars but should 'fess up that I live 2 houses and a street crossing from Updown who some of you will know.
I think you can piece the story together....
Hey but I remember the BillyCart & a Pinball Machine you made back in the 60's ….. So a Guitar should be No problem !!
:icon_scratch: Then again you may need a hand …..
Thats right blame me for your GAS :laughing7:
So if any detectives out there might have noticed some pic's / background, would match some I've posted previously.
Anyway...
I gotta say this really dose look just beautiful in the Raw Flesh. The Neck is perfect for this body finish. :icon_thumright: Very good 1st up choice indeed.
Great to see someone else's Warmoth build in front of my own eyes ….. Always better in the Flesh !!
But …. I think Blackouts has had a 'Blackout' somewhere since buying this body !! :laughing3:
He keeps saying to me (& above in 1st post) that it's a ….. Washed Black Finish …. :doh: I'm sure he dreamt this one up.
So since I haven't had a beer or anything else as yet, today. :icon_jokercolor:
I'll just clarify the body finish, STATED from the showcase spec's are …
Top Finish …… Transparent Black (this is correct)
Back Finish … Black Dye (think this is a mistake)
OK … We both believe the Back is finished in Black Gloss, NOT Black Dye, looks just like mine I have.
It's a solid body too, weight was 4lbs 4oz….

If I had to guess, the finish does not look like their blackwash dye, but transpsrent black.
While both are transparent, a dye goes in the wood and their transparent finishes go on the wood and the transparent blacks I've seen do have a brownish subtlety.
Yep correct !!
I understand how a Transparent Finish can have a different tinge to it from the actual colour chosen or done already. Plus wood texture.
As I had a Transparent Finish (Yellow) put onto my Strat GK-3 'The Cigar' pic in my aviator.
Which wasn't as yellow as I was expecting (still very happy with thou) is more of a Golden Honey Brown colour.
With this one of 'Blackouts' it has a real coffee / chocolate misty eat-able look to it (even the Neck) that gives different tinges from other angles.
Really think the black hardware being used, is going to just look great on this build …. should be sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet.

Hey all ….. :sign13: remember last months winning guitar had this type of colour.
Can't wait till this one's served up :blob7: I'm Hungry for some Chocolate :blob7:
