Default varnishing

Arnold,
I couldn't agree with you more about your comments on making and varnishing. When I first started I thought that the making part was the hardest, now I think it's the varnishing.

It's too bad that bass was stripped. The original varnish was probably just fine.

If it was revarnished and turned orange, I'm thinking it might have been oil with a red brown color that is fading?

the varnish was poorly applied as well as just simply being a crappy color !
