1993 I tried building a Stratocaster type guitar in High School shop class. This is the 1st body I attempted. It was mistake after mistake. Broken drill bits that had to be drilled out and filled, routed areas that were too big, neck pocket cracked, etc…… after too many ugly mistakes I started over, learning from my mistakes. I did build one and went to State and took 1st place.
This body sat in 3 different garages all these years. I finally decided TotalBoat epoxy is fantastic at filling cracks and voids. Lots of sanding, filling, sanding, shaping, and sanding….. a fantastic silver metal flake finish that I have always wanted by the amazing And here we go!
Just in time for my 50th birthday this week.
