Guess what I did on the bass today?  NOTHING!  I discovered a leaking toilet before church, so I've been working on that and taxes all afternoon.  UGH!  Maybe some action in the shop later.............. :-[

OK, the toilet is reinstalled and the taxes are finished!  Whoohoo!   ;D

Now, I got into the shop and I mixed up some Transtint with some Bartley's filler, ended up with chocolate pudding!!!  :P  Yesterday, I just wasn't so sure about the dye on the ash, but after today, man I am loving it!!!  Of course, I'm biased about my own work.  Doh!

Here's the progression from pudding to wipe off on the filler.  I also took a piece of splatted maple and tinted it with Fender neck amber to see if it would look good against the walnut.  I think it's nice but I'm still liking the light cream color of the maple.  The dark grain lines really pop against the natural wood.

Nice job . Id go cream as much as I like the yellow tint. The top will change in time. walnut looks great. I have some Claro around this place somewhere.

That worked very well on the ash.

No tint on the maple looks best to me.
