Paul, do you have some final pictures or is this still underway?

Re: F212XL Project - Added Part 3- Final Repair and staining

Still underway. It takes a while to let the finish harden usually about 3-4 weeks. I am doing the final sanding and buffing now.
I am quite pleased with the neck, back, and sides, but the top has been a challenge due to all the things you have to work around. I'm not happy with the top, but I'm going to go ahead and finish it out. I have ordered the pickguard material and it should be in next Wednesday. I will post final pictures as soon as I cut out the pickguard and put it on. Thanks for asking.

Cool beans.

Hey, I had "Franzz" out last night playing in the living room. It's playing great! Franzz says "hello." :)

Paul, I'm *very* impressed! The wood looks beautiful, from what I can tell. Congrats, and bravo!
