If you want something with higher opacity I've still got the spare can from my build.

I agree Grant, a few more coats coast and the colour will fill in a bit and it'll look even better

Re: Colour Consultant needed for Guitar finish
I would say you need some wash coats, half and half laquer and thinners, to melt in and smooth out the finish. Wet sand and buff, it'll look great.That colour looks really good, the ash grain really pops in it and makes it look interesting.

Once you have the colour sorted, give it to James/Single Coil and he will sort out a new headstock.

It'll be gorgeous when that white fades to butterscotch. Can't believe I used that word butter...
