Bass & Guitar

These are coming along very well. The base layer of Krylon satin polyurethane is sanded down. Each one got a full can. I am waiting for another warm day to apply the final coats.

Krylon is my new favorite rattle-can poly. You can get it at Hobby Lobby for just five bucks a can, with a 40%-off coupon. All the spray paints were 30% off last week, and I bought out the store.

Krylon has the thinnest formulation and goes on very smooth. Varathane is very thick and seems to be pre-loaded with dust nits and lumps. It makes a good grain-filler, but that's all. Minwax was my previous favorite, but since Lowes bought up Minwax, they raised the prices. Krylon is not only the best but also the cheapest!

Danelectro is my favorite type of guitar, simply for the genius of their unorthodox, inexpensive, yet highly effective designs. I love the tone of old-growth masonite. If you are looking for details, the Pro-1 Bass is the most complete build documentation.
