Whuile y have done several hand rubbed bursts in the past I had a client that decided he wanted a burst after the first coat of finish whent on. so I did a 5 color Tabacco burst using Stewmac's translucent dyes and KTM9. Just out of the booth this weekend and odviously not rubbed out yet but worked pretty well

Vintage Amber - Tobacco Brown and were the only stain colors used but I made up 3 intermediate ratios of the two in combination to transition with starting with pure vintage amber and slowly adding tobacco brown.
