picked up a short scale tele neck for a project for my daughter on ebay very cheap £11.00!!
However someone has applied 2-pack( from advert description ) as a finish and its very poor, runs, bubbled, and feels sticky.
what to do next?
1. try to sand it back to a smooth finish ( there is a lot of it on there )
Q whats the best way to do this sandpaper, wet and dry, cabinate scaper?
2. remove it all and start again.
Q stripper, scaper, sandpaper
the neck is birds eye maple bookmatched fretboard, birdseye maple neck with a vaneer ( dark, not sure what) in between.
The headstock has a three place facing with a dark wood showing on top, really not sure i like it but cant tell uptill the finish is off or smooth.
will try to add a photo later today when i can get the camera to work
