I mixed up a really nice 2:1 tobacco/red analine mix for the back of this, but it left the top burst i had done previously looking a bit anemic in comparison, so I shot a little extra there too. The plan is to fade it out a bit if I have time.
Onto clear.

I decided to put parts on as it cures to help with colour fade, ended up putting them all on and stringing it up

I always thought sycamore was maple?
Sycamore and Maple are both part of the Soapberry family of trees. Sycamore is a fair bit softer than maple.

Ah, thanks. There doesn't seem to be a lot of logic in how they name these things.
In the US sycamore is a plane tree. They call the tree we call sycamore European Maple, which is exactly the wood used on all those old classical instruments that Gibson copied when using flamed maple on their instruments.
Its a little softer than rock maple, but not that soft really. Pretty comparable to quilted/big leaf maple.
