Burst can be a PITA although it looks easy and not all techniques work the same for all people. You have to experiment with most of them to found which one works best for you.
Here is one Gibson USA I paint for a friend, from apple red to burst like Moore's guitar.

Thanks for the spraying info, very useful.
I've just seen http://behlen.co.uk/ are only selling the General Finishes now in the UK, the Behlen instrument finishes were rather good.

Nice job on the Les Paul Nickhofen, that looks far better now.
