    After using the wood dye to colour match the neck repair, it would be best to removes the masking tape from the back of the neck before the clear coat. You can mist coat to either side of the repair to blend more seamlessly with the original lacquer and avoid the hard line that was left by the masking.

      In the 80's, our bassist found a news paper headline that said "The Government has aids research funding approval"... So she cut out "The government has aids" and clear coated it to her bass. Was it a bad idea, yea, but everyone who saw that bass remembered it. So I get it. But I also love restoring them so win win really LOL

    Given the tools you have, or in this case don't have, you do spectacular work. I personally would have refinished the entire neck, but I suspect you did it that way to show its battle scars. I also appreciate that you left all of its wear and tear intact, choosing to clean, instead of completely refinishing. With regard to the pick guard, may I suggest dipping it in a bath of hydrogen peroxide and exposing it to UV light; it will completely remove all of the yellowing and make it white again. Well done, it plays beautifully.

    Construtive criticism: Sorry but the paint in the back of neck result in a very bad work... You should paint all neck.
    And all your works you didnt remove the yellow on the old white plastic. Its could be done with a UV light (ODD Thinkering Channel teachs how to do)
    You didnt remove the rust properly on the metallic parts and you could replace the nickel plating in some restorations too. Restore Channels teachs how to do.
    You should polish the paints to remove the risks, marks with sandpapers 3000, 5000 and then polish...
