Thanks, it was a bit of a trick with rattle cans and I wasnt sure about the fade until all the topcoats were on. That somehow smooths it out. Ill consider sealing the walls if we end up staying in this house.

Thankya. It is quite comfortable to play, and nicely balanced. That point on the upper bass bout can stick you a little bit sitting down, but I got over it pretty quickly. I also mostly play electric standing. Also, the large crescent shape under the treble side of the bridge is great to rest on your leg and play classical style - that was mostly on purpose.

I like the look of this very much. Trans black is one of the most difficult to pull off but this looks very well done.<br />
Ref the concrete dust, is it possible to seal the walls with stabiliser and the floor with garage floor paint? The top surface of uncovered concrete floors continuously shed very, very fine cement dust and walls, not so bad, but do too.<br />

Awesome guitar! Interesting shape that's original but still looks comfortable to play. Some of those BC Rich guitars are actually painful to play! Beautiful top wood and fantastic finish, love the fade. Your inlay work is also very good! Original and well executed. And beyond looks, I was going to ask you how it sounds, but you mentioned you used Black Winter pickups, how appropriate! I too am a Seymour fan, great distortion while preserving the resonance of the wood, I'm sure it shreds and…
Awesome guitar! Interesting shape that's original but still looks comfortable to play. Some of those BC Rich guitars are actually painful to play! Beautiful top wood and fantastic finish, love the fade. Your inlay work is also very good! Original and well executed. And beyond looks, I was going to ask you how it sounds, but you mentioned you used Black Winter pickups, how appropriate! I too am a Seymour fan, great distortion while preserving the resonance of the wood, I'm sure it shreds and sounds killer! A sexy guitar is one thing, a sexy guitar that you actually want to play is something else! Congrats my friend! Be proud!<br />

<p>The finish I am talking about is a nitro lacquer of some kind. It may be used for built in woodwork in homes where the risk of dust contamination is the highest, rather than in a shop, where there's more environmental control (at least, theoretically). </p>

I worked as a spray finisher at a kitchen place in town for a year, and while the catalyzed finish I used there was nice/good, it didnt dry any faster than what I use now, which is dry to the touch between 2 and 10 minutes depending on how wet the coat is. I like my rattle cans at the moment because I dont have to worry about moisture in the lines or any of that jazz, which can become a whole other thing to deal with.
