The Guitar Saga, Post VII
This past Saturday I very lightly sanded with 800 finish paper, cleaned, and then put several coats on. Sunday wet-sanded to level, cleaned, and then the last, very light, finishing coat. Here's what it looks like now:
Yeah, looks a lot better than with the original finish flaking off.

Handsome!
It looks a LOT better; overall, happy with how it's turned out.
Now I just have to wonder for another few days if it's affected the sound...
