The body is coming along nicely with four coats of poly wet sanded between every second coat. Is that fine or should I be religiously wet sanding gently between every layer? Thanks

Alrighty. Done. Thanks

It’s just the face of the maple headstock.

Thanks for answering these questions. One more? Can I use a wax polish on a headstock face finished in linseed oil to get a bit of shine?

Another question please/thanks: Will satin or semi gloss poly buff to a gloss as well as a gloss poly using polishing wax? Cheers

Thank you. I’ll watch that and follow it. Cheers

Thank you very much. That makes total sense now that you’ve said it. What kind of polishing compound would work over Poly? Thanks again. Cheers

Hi there. I’m going to sand a Warmoth Body and then finish it with a poly wipe. Question please: How fine do I go with grit? Is there such a thing as too fine? Thank Glenn

Thanks. That makes sense.

The real challenge is that I see two bridges and they both look good and the reviews are good but one is made by Gotoh @68$ and the other one has no name attached to it and is 28$. Stuff like that. Cheers

Hi there. I’m going to build a Steam Punk Tele using a Warmoth body and neck so I’m looking to buy the rest of the hardware but there are so many new names out there that I can’t decide on where I should be getting this stuff from. I live in Canada but Amazon has too many suppliers feeding crap...

That’s a great summary.

I agree with getting the 24 but even that can be tricky. I have 3 and they’re all different but the same. Unfortunately the prettiest one (grey fade library top) is my least favourite because the neck is so thin. I’ll take ‘Things to complain about that make me sound like an a$$hole’, for 300 Alex.

I would definitely get the 594

I have this too but my source could be different than yours and my solutions might not work for you. My fear of failure took root as an infant while being raised by an alcoholic = insecurities galore and self esteem issues that almost never subside. Add ADHD and you have a pretty bad situation...
