59 Les Paul junior build
I’ve shared a few pics of this build but as it’s nearing completion l thought I’d dedicate a thread to it. My son and I have been building this one together and it’s been awesome seeing him enjoy the experience and become more confidant with tools.
Anyhoo too tired now to type anymore
Started life as a big plank of mahogany

Grain filler then prepped up and off to the spray booth for a few layers of sealer before we hit it with the cherry

Fantastic! That’s looking so good already.

Thanks elduderino’s.
Can’t wait to hear the p90 we wound for it. We are about to go into lock down again for six fucking weeks so not sure if I can get to the work shop to finish it off!

Into the spray booth for three coats of cherry stain. 5-6 coats of clear during the week and then 2-3 weeks to harden before it can be sanded back.
