After days of being at the whimsy of the local humidity, I've finally finished the primer on the kit guitar body.
It seems this year, what used to be the monsoon season is now dragged out into an all-summer long rainy season. We're really turning tropical here in North Augusta South Carolina it would seem.
I don't recall having to go so many days waiting for the humidity to come down in previous builds. Starting maybe 6-7 years ago, the monsoon rain phenomenon appeared, but in between long dry periods. Apparently this is no longer the case. We've gotten a few monsoons, but also day after day of rain.
Which really makes it nearly impossible to paint a guitar if you're doing it on a Peasant Level as I've had to do. Another curious aspect of life in the 21st century: "Micro-windows For Optimal Paint Application".
It's made me realize that in the future, if I'm refinishing a guitar it's probably going to have to be a stain.
