Great-looking bursts! And you don't even use a shield to paint the colors - all freehand. Amazing!
So many guitars; So little time ..

Hey Jason,
The heat is killing me too!
My shop is an un-insulated tin building, up front by the big door
The cooler spot, the temp was a 110, so in the back where my paint booth is
it was at least 120, gotta get me some aircondisioning!

While you're having to bear the heat Ed, what you are showing us is super cool, I'm absolutely amazed...and my jaw has dropped onto my keypad. Man, they're absolutely lovely. (I see one order for a bolt-on neck; the other three being set necks)
