Hi,
I have been playing again, this is a solid end Baron made with curly koa.
I have been trying to get my lacquer process down, so this is one that looks like I might be on the right track.
This pen has 6 coats of spray lacquer, rubbed out with 8000-12,000 MM wet then plastic polished.
It's an even finish that fills the wood grain, I think I like this finish, it took three days waiting for the lacquer to cure.
One note, becareful of the edges, they sand through even with MM easily.
Critiques are welcomed please.

], I like the plain look of the band this way, feels funny to toss away parts with all the mini plastic bags now too.
