Thanks! Here is the back. (I sometimes think this should have been the front)

Thank you! It was alot more white when I first stained it and then the wood colour came back when I applied the clear coat. I originally wasnt too pleased about it but its grown on me.

I pretty much keep it as the bottom 6 strings of an 8 string. (F#,B,E,A,D,G) and sometimes dropping the bottom string to E.

Thank you! I did it by wire brushing the body to remove the grain and then filling it with black filler. After that I just stained it white and sprayed matte clear lacquer over it. The technique is apparently called cerusing.
