So you never use a rag like the throng of people on youtube do? They brag about their after effect "sunburst" finish by using a rag instead of sprayer. I don't get it because I don't see it. NONE of them impress me.

Here is a prime example of what not to do, and I see so much of this stuff on here. People rubbing stain on a guitar as if that's gonna do the trick. I don't get it. This guy starts off with the yellow like you did, and everything thing else done afterwards makes absolutely no sense. kzitem.info/news/bejne/l6uLl2yai3xndY4si=Y5GxmgL6Dt4WEWsc

Is this how the asians do their excellent honey burst on their Epiphones? No black around the edges obviously.

This is the best video I have ever seen. I gotta remember this. 1/2 teaspoon of lemon color. 1/8 teaspoon of red. 1/8 teaspoon of brown. Yellow goes down first, 2 coats lacquer sanding between lacquer coats.

Hi, why did you use Mohawk black instead of the Transtint black? Is it better somehow? Thanks

You got that honey burst finish I've been looking for! Not just stain rubbed onto a maple top so many people do. This is EXACTLY what I want. No black or anything else added around the edges. Finally!

Sorry to use foul language, but I think it's necessary. That's Bad Ass!! I'd never thought of this melting method. Thanks.

If you could can you please make a video on how to make a more sunburst finish, also can you do one on how to get an iguana burst like one for a sj200

Would the technique of spraying what appears to be a light / "dry coat" of the acetone-based NGR dye stain be able to "burn in" and blend/melt into a light, wash-coat-cut (+/- ~1 lb cut) of shellac (which has been cut with DNR/denatured alcohol)? A quick search for possible chemical reactions didn't show anything obvious. Just curious if it would create any problems...

Is it gonna work if I use brown instead of black? To achieve a "honeyburst" effect?

Fabulous. You should coach Martin and Guild staff on how to do a sunburst finish that doesn't suck. I love both those guitar manufacturers but it seems only Gibson do consistently fine bursts.

I used your technique to spray a bourbon burst on a practice piece of wood. It came out great the first time. I used lacquer thinner instead of acetone. The 2nd time I tried it, I could not get it to blend. The brown coat kept running on top of the lacquer coat. Not sure why.

Maybe you had too much material? When I do this technique I use more air & less material so it goes on just wet enough to melt into the previous lacquer coat.

Unfortunately not, you need to spray the dye color, melting it into the clear coat.

I would respectfully disagree with Mr. Miller. With practice you can 100% recreate a Gibson style burst/fade finish. KZitemr BIGDGUITARS offers many tutorials of how he achieves this type of finish. Also of note, while "shimmer" is an apt description for the visual effect of the Maple Flame or Quilt grain patterns the correct term is called Chatoyance. If you lack a spray gun for this type of finish I encourage you to visit BIGDGUITARS as his work is every bit as amazing/beautiful as Brian Miller's.

@@hkguitar1984 You are correct sir, I should have qualified that to replicate exactly how I had done the sample would require a spray technique, it can be done by hand, and yes in France it's referred it as Chatoyance. I also saw Chatoyance at the gentleman's club by LAX but that is a different story!
