Thank you for that update, Bob. This particular box has the brand pretty deep into the wood. I might try to cover it up, not sure. i might try that steaming trick of yours pretty soon. Thanks again!
Ray, I started another Padron yesterday and the impression was stamped too deep to get all of it raised enough to sand out. I ended up filling and painting primer on it. I’m going to paint a Lone Star flag on it now. I guess I got lucky on the first two boxes.
Thank you for the kind comments, UJ. I still haven't decided whether or not to add a little more back-bend to it. Will probably play with it today sometime.
Thank you, Ambrose! I have three Padrons, in two sizes and they are all relatively loud and they all sound good acoustically as well as being strong. Love 'em.
I steamed the Smoking causes Demons warning on a box I’m working on and it raised the impression enough to fine sand it off without going through the top veneer.

That sounds like a really cool trick there Bob. I'll have to try that one out. After seeing some of your work, I'm all ears.

Looking good, Ray. Unified tones, nice heel and a bit of down slope on the neck.
Taking shape. I've got a couple of Padron's that I will convert to CBG's in the future. They are sturdy boxes.
