  • Hi! I’ve just seen your post about your old Johnson amp you sold. I’ve come into one and I’ve no idea what it’s worth since they’re fairly rare. The model I have is a 15 watt combo, do you have any idea what sort of price range it would be in?
    Kind regards,
    Blair
    Hello-I know it’s from 2 years ago but I am curious about your white blond tele-I am working on a tele(ish) of my own and the finish you got is just about what I am looking for. Are all of the color coats hand-sponged? And what specific products did you use? Thanks!

    Two coats thinned white nitro from Manchester Guitar Tech https://manchesterguitartech.co.uk/nitrocellulose-lacquer/ an additional coat around the edges and body applied by sponge. Fine sanded. Then 2 coats of Rothko and Frost rattle can nitro clear, one final very light spray of Rothko and Frost nitro amber as a light aging hint. Lots of 1200 paper sanding to a satin finish.

    Cool, thanks! I will give that a go. It seems like you got the white and the desired transparency with the base coats and then ambered it up with the final clear. That's a good call.

    Hi,
    Can you elaborate on what you did with the steel wool to the white tele? I used the wool on a strat body but there are small scratches on it. Did you experience the same thing? How did you apply the T Cut?
    Thanks!
