What are you using for finish?

Do you always finish drilling for hardware after the finish?

Brian the finish is lacquer. Im still figuring out the sequence of things with finish. What might be your preference? Typically I like the drill out for pots and bridge but Zi wanted to try something different and I got too excited to see this walnut under finish so forged ahead without drilling. Sometimes my add gets the best of me lol

Did you do any level sanding between coats?

Barry Yes I level sanded with 300 grit between coats.

Hesh I'll trade a finished body for more luthier classes.

You might want to dial down the air pressure because you are getting considerable orange peel.
