LOL Right now, kinda. LOL I was just looking at the box of parts yesterday. Really need to get to work on it.

Nothing like some good ole ball busting for motivation, eh?

Is it done yet?

The hard part is getting outside to paint it. Once I do that I'll probably assemble it and set it up in a couple hours.

Just to pour some salt in your laziness wounds here...

I am already gigging with the body that you sent me...

Good likelihood of painting this weekend.

So, no actual black paint laid down, yet. Maybe tomorrow.

However, I FINALLY ordered the tape I need for the stripes and the arm for the Floyd that @baimun sold me. Got a brass big block on the way for it, too.

@Scott_Abene

Coat #1 is on.

 

[GilmourD]

Coat #2, @Scott_Abene.

 

[GilmourD]

Grain is still visible but not wood colored, so once it's try I should be ready for taping. Gonna leave it for 48 hours to properly dry (besides, Ed's was black for a while before it was B&W) and then it'll get taped up.

That looks KILLER the way it is!! Just lay on a sealer and you're done!!!

Nope.

Nope.

Haha!!! I thought you might feel that way!!! I just liked the look of the grain, it's unique.

@Scott_Abene, how long did you wait before you applied tape for striping on your Frankies?

I use dupli-color and it is usually the next day but as low as 6 hours
