green flying v

Flying V sessions 5 + 6. Where does the time go? Summer holidays and life in general put my V guitar on hold. We’re now in the home stretch. I have made two recent visits to my friend Kevin’s workshop. Kevin makes The New Vintage brand guitars. Painting and sanding have been happening. I picked a satin military style green which will look great next to the tortoise shell pickguard. We sprayed, waited, and sprayed, and repeated. A week later I came back to sand with fancy 800 grit paper. We resumed the spray and wait thing, this time with clear coat. It looks smooth and fancy. Kevin used some tricks to cover some flaws. It’s not perfect but it will have mojo. We have more treatments planned for the body, then assembly. Stay tuned.
