How to Achieve a Glass-Smooth Lacquer Finish on a Guitar

In this segment of my series on building a dreadnought guitar, I apply the lacquer finish.  I have shown myself spraying and sanding lacquer in other videos, so in this one I spend more time showing how I fill pores in the koa with Z-poxy before spraying lacquer.  I also spend some time showing how I clean up the difficult junction between the neck and body, and between the soundboard and the fretboard.  
I have found that I can get a much better scratch-free finish if I don't try to buff the guitar completely in one day.
