    Might help if you would show the progress once in a while (tilt the guitar to the camera) to break up the tedium of your polishing.

    About the stain... from what I can see of bottles of stain he uses, it's called "ColorTone Liquid Stain for Stringed Instruments" and it's sold at StewMac and other places online...

    Stains are pricey, here. Guessing by thr stains on the two bottles and what's on the towel... I'd say, Vintage Amber, The red. They have a Bor. Red, cherry and red Mohag to name a few. I guess Mohag. or would use it. And Tobacco Brown. Mmmm, bursty. You can spray the water-based stains w/ distilled water. Nozzle wide open @ 60 PSI for large pieces or airbrush it for a nice clean even, odorless application. Everclear works pretty well too.

    Warning to anyone trying this with a thin veneer. You gotta do it in coats. All that rubbing while wet will tear up a cheap veneer. Only do it this way with a solid top.

  • @donaldwilliams9848

    Since Mr. Voight won't answer: He is using highly concentrated dyes that typically sell under the brand name TransTint (available from Woodcraft and on-line). In this video he is apparently using a brand from Stew-Mac which is most likely TransTint with Stew-Macs label slapped on it. TransTint can be used in water, denatured alcohol (my preference), lacquer, shellac and other finishes. It is hard to tell from this video which solvent he is using; most likely water which dries slower than other solvents and allows a greater working time. TransTint comes in many, many colors such as Bright Red, Lemon Yellow, Golden Brown etc. which can be combined to create virtually any color. For example, I combine golden brown with lemon yellow in denatured alcohol to get a vintage amber color similar to his base stain in this video. These dyes aren't cheap but a little goes a long, long way. Hope that helps.

    • @armandodiaz67
      @armandodiaz67 3 роки тому

      I see Stew-Mac offers an amber color premade. However, I'm a bit hesitant to buy it. In the sample they show it looks like a very light brown, rather than the golden color, we normally see. I have found anyone to confirm using this.

    • @donaldwilliams9848
      @donaldwilliams9848 2 роки тому

      @@DJCJ999 no. You have to dilute the dye with alcohol before applying. since alcohol evaporates rapidly that's a tricky application technique itself. I don't know if there are any UA-cam videos showing how to apply dye that's been diluted with alcohol but you might research that

    • @Planet9_music
