Okay, I'll ask.



That blue ask one - do you mind if I ask how you manage to get the grain one colour and the main body another?



I had a thought with oil based wudtone - using one colour, then applying a second colour into the grain and sanding back until the previous colour shows. But I think it would be messy and tricky!





im not 100% with you but ill answer what I think you are asking..

when you hit swamp ash with a dye, the deeper grain always goes darker.. plus I lighten the top of the body after its been dyed to enhance that effect. 

if you were wanted a different colour in the deep grain, most people use a grain filler for that I believe followed by dying the top wood.. a similar thing to what I did with that swap ash tele I made a while ago.



BTW - I dont use Wudtone, I mix my own dyes from powder and the blue body has been satin lacquered instead of oiled.

Thanks for that. looks great!

I have too much stock and not enough room, grab a bargain while you can !  or grab the remaining stock at the guitar show in Feb

Current stock, the green salvo is already provisionally spoken for i'm afraid.
