Hi Everyone,
I'm new here. My current project is to build something like the Telecaster Ultra. Single bound on top. Belly cutaway and neck heel mod. Put on a tele neck but with Wolfgang profile, because once you play that profile there is no going back. Neck pickup a soap bar or HB sized single coil.
The challenge is figuring out how to do the Texas Tea finish which Fender uses on their Ultras.
I think it might be primer in black. Then a clear coat with gold tiny dust. Then an dark brown/black tinted clear layer.
On the other hand it could be a custom blend of the gold and the dark brown/black.
It's a colour in the Dulux range. I don't know if it's the same as the Fender finish.\
I don't want to buy a Fender Ultra because I want the Warmoth neck and custom pickup config.
Is there anyone out there with painting expertise who might be able to shed some light please?
