Howdy, all -
I just picked up a body on ebay on a minimum bid - and now i have to finish the dang thing.
What I'd like to do is replicate this finish:
As you can see, the mahogany is a one-piece body, and has a nicely irregular grain that I think will show nicely through a green stain. The question is: What should I use to achieve the green stain? I don't want to get a muddy finish, but I don't want to run the risk of losing that nice streaking in the grain by bleaching. Any thoughts?
Thanks
