So a buddy of mine knows I started making pens. He's a big guitar guy and had a strat body lying around that someone did a hack job refinishing. Solid curly maple, and who ever this genius was stained it in this terrible pinkish purple stain.
He had started sanding it to refinish it had about 10 hours into it and was still a LONG way to go. Gave up and its been sitting in his garage ever since.
Untill the other day, when he drops it of at my place and says here cut this up and make me a pen.
At first I said hell no, let me take a crack at refinishing it for you and you can slap a neck and electronics in it and sell it. He's rather instant that he wants me to cut it up. lol.
Have any of you done this before? I'm sure it will make a pretty pen or bottle stopper. And would be a good conversation piece I'd imagine for selling them.
