Well the box was in a sorry condition but the whole thing is made of plywood rather than MDF.
The distressing was done using nothing more than wire wool, and sealed with five or six coats of Danish Oil, i guess I got lucky!
The pickup cover and the speed knobs were done by spraying a bit of brass spray paint, and whilst still wet, I lightly sprayed it with black satin paint. Left it to dry and used wire wool to 'shape' the colors.

I just realised I called you Bob - hope you don't mind. Names seem to be changing all over the place around here!
I love the vintage look of this - how do you achieve that? Excellent job
haven't seen one of yours in a while Bob. Nice work as ever!
