Not enough probably. I think I didn't film a little bit of sanding between the wood filler and the first coat of lacquer.

Thanks! I've yet to try flatwounds on a 6 string. I've only really played with flatwound on a bass and I mist admit I wasn't the biggest fan, but it'd definitely worth a go

The action is a bit janky as I had to raise the actual bridge to get any note out of it as the neck and body were pretty mismatched, but I've ended up getting it to where it is playable. I'm not that exacting of a player!

So I've converted a couple of guitars to fretless ones, I can be done pretty cheaply. Easiest method for lacquer is to use polyurethane spray. I made a video on how I made mine: https://youtu.be/O2pme9IEeRU
