NGD : Pink Lady Telemaster blocks and binding

Post by pikmin » Wed Sep 15, 2021 3:33 pm

Hi !

I just finished my latest project : a pink Telemaster with red bobbins pickups and a neck with blocks and binding .
Pickups are a custom set made by Q_pickups and it sounds awesome ...
Here’s a picture from tonight , I will take more pictures tomorrow.

Now those are some big-ass blocks! Love it.

Also, FYI, we have a cocktail of antacids and anesthetics we give patients in the emerg with esophageal issues that's informally called a pink lady. Not sure if you knew, but the name made me chuckle.

Did you do the paint yourself? If so, what color pink did you use!?! The whole build looks gorgeous.

Yes I painted it myself with Molotow paint . The color is called « Rose Cochon Clair » in French . I used a white primer and a clear gloss finish too ...
Not always easy to paint with spray cans , it’s not perfect but I’m pleased with the results ...
I did a lot of wet sanding too ...

Thanks! If it's any consolation, it looks like all that wet sanding paid off.
