New Rick on the way

OK, the clearcoats are done. Wet sanded and polished using 3 different compound. The result it's damn good. OK, it's not a Tonar finish but I'm really satisfied. Ash is really difficult to fill and when you wet sand always appear some small "dings" were the grain it's not filled properly. This is my 3rd finish on a guitar (all of the using ash) and I'm improving my technique. Next one is a cheap mahogany SG (set neck) that I've bought to practise finishing. I'm going to grainfill with black tinted Stewmac filler, stain in red and clearcoat. I don't have sprygun, so I must use spray cans. I have some Gibson pickups and a Groover set of tuners, so I think the final instrument it's going to be more than acceptable. I inform you when the project starts. Forn now, what do you think of this finish?
