Unless otherwise indicated, we strongly recom- mend using a drill press for the majority of drilling to obtain the most precise results. However, an electric/cordless drill fitted with a depth stop or a drill stand can be used if you do not have a drill press.
We recommend using a hollow punch (see Page 23, Accessories) to carve out holes in the finish before drilling any holes. Also, a router pad can help reduce scratches in the finish.
To mount the neck to the guitar body:
1. Insert the neck into the neck pocket, and check to make sure the neck and body are flush as shown in Figure 9.

3. Set the guitar facedown on top of two 4x4's or two 2x4's (cut to 12") for support.

5.Apply several thin coats of the finish, follow- ing the manufacturer's instructions. Multiple thin coats usually produce a better quality finish than one heavy coat.

6.Sand the entire body with #400 grit wet and dry sandpaper after at least three coats of fin- ish have been applied. DO NOT sand through the finish—be careful on the edges.

7.Apply more finish, sanding between coats, until the finish is the desired thickness.

Note: If finishing with a solid color, you may wish to apply several coats of a clear finish over the top, sanding between coats, to add depth to the finish.

8.When the final coat has dried at least a week, preferably a month, remove the temporary handle and masking.

9.Wet sand the finish using #600 grit wet and dry sandpaper using a sanding block, fol- lowed with #1000 grit wet and dry sandpa- per.

10.Buff the finish by hand or with a buffer, start- ing with a medium polish and working up to a high gloss polish.

Note: If using a buffing machine, be careful to avoid going through the finish, especially on the edges.

NOTICE

Dust particles suspended in the air will settle on wet finishes, causing less than sat- isfactory results. To avoid this problem:

Leave the finishing room undisturbed for 24 hours before applying the finish.

Avoid making unnecessary movements when entering the finish room.

Apply the finish to the desired parts and immediately leave the room.

DO NOT return to the room until the specified drying time has elapsed.
