High Gloss Guitar Finish Option (without spraying)

Описание: Here is a quick video that covers how I get a high Gloss guitar finish in my home workshop without spraying. Melamine Lacquer is a fast building, quick drying and useful solution for those of us without access to a spray booth. I've found it to be great to work with and thought it may be useful to some people to share how I get a result that I'm happy with.
For information the lacquer I use is Chestnut products Melamine Lacquer.

What influences me in my guitar building?
I love building guitars and the community that has grown around luthiery. I like to build reimagined versions of classic guitars and give them my own twist. So classics from Fender Guitars and Gibson Guitars tend to be my main inspiration. From the community, I hope to create content similar to Crimson Guitars, BIGDGUITARS and Guns and Guitars. I have found their content invaluable over the years.

I love building guitars! Join me as I build original design electric guitars and share my guitar building tips and tricks. On this channel you will get full guitar building series and detailed 'How To' videos describing the step by step process for some of the trickiest parts of building guitars.

My guitar builds cover everything from designing, wood choices, shaping guitar necks & bodies, installing truss rods, neck carving, guitar fretting, guitar binding, installing guitar pickups & electronics, guitar set ups, dyeing and colouring, finishing & polishing guitars.

I build original and reimagined versions of classic guitars. Everything I make is for sale and I also like to make videos of my guitar builds to show customers how their instruments are made. Its also a great way of making friends within the guitar building community! I've also entered the Great Guitar build off for 2021 & 2022 as a bit of fun and to help share what I've learned.
