is a transparent ebony/black good to refinish a mahogany Gibson SG?
I’m curious to see how these will turn out. I never really thought about all the points you made. I’m learning a lot from you!
Glad you got that shelf up that you talked about for the Angelus!!!
Possible to do black on ash body but torch the grain so the grain black is darker than the stain? I kinda want a black/gold theme with dyes. Gold would have to come from pickups and hardware. Maybe a black burst and thin out the black in the middle? Thanks D!
Is there anything in particular I should be aware of if I want to try to color rengas wood specifically? I can't seem to find anything about it, and I want to do a particular kit guitar in a nice deep red that still keeps the wood grain visible.
Where do you source your raw wood? I'm in Central Fl and it's difficult to find Alder.
Thanks for the tips Derek ! Red and Black might look good with those streaks in the body ?
Thanks for the video Derek, nice to have the thought process before you grab the dyes! - Cheers from Canada
All very good info Derek! Thanks!
How about Okoume? I cant seem to find any info on Okoume wood in reference to guitars. i just bought a kit to build a guitar and i hate the plain wood look its super ugly. id like to stain it black and put a poly coat over it to give it a nice shine. Any stains and polys that would work for Okoume? also do to wipe it down with a grease and oil remover prior or staining and finishing? or does that only matter for paint? thanks
Hey, have you got any more info on this since posting? I bought a kit that uses Okuome too and there's very little info on it.
Nothing, these tools don't even respond to their own content smh but i realized from a few videos that Okoume is similar to basswood so you can treat it similarly. i just got a poly coat to seal the natural wood grain with. it seems to have some sort of light finish on it so i would sand it a little bit just to be safe. good luck my friend!

Very informative 😊
I thought it's called Paulownia?
It is. Kinda likin' Polani though! 😅
@@EnJoony it's when the kiri tree was planted in Italy ;)
