I haven't been posting much lately. I have been fiddling around with a couple of guitar builds. One is a Tele. I have had this body and neck for a while. Finally decided to work on it.
I decided to paint it gold firemist metallic. It is a color that fender introduced in 1966. I didn't really want to do shoreline gold, since it's been done to death. Gold firemist metallic is a cooler and kind of rare color. It was a bitch to find it I know that.
It looks almost like copper and highlights and reflects gold metallic.
These pics are before any clear coating, sanding, or buffing.
I'm using nitro lacquer paint and clear for this project
