I call it the MacFarland (my family name). Roasted maple neck, tone ring, rim (segmented 11”). Rosewood fretboard and headstock plate, ebony heel cap, walnut/maple dowel stick, Purple Heart rope rim carving.
No difference in sound after painting head, but the paid very thin so I’m not surprised.

Hi cammie,



Your plaid is stunning.



Please share the details about the process and type of paint.



Best, Kam

thank you. I airbrushed it with very thin acrylic paint over a few stencils.

Nice job. I really like that tartan painted on the head. I'd like to paint my tartan on a head but the Munro tartan is a little bit complicated.

That is awesome.

You could just do Scotland's flag, the Saltire.

That's a good idea.

Very nice.

I like how you used color to embellish the frets.

One of a kind design. Well done
