Put it on just using a rag. Not that you can tell in the photos but I carved the neck down a bit too, again to feel more like my other guitars. Then I finished it with Cabots Cobothane Clear Gloss on the front and headstock and the same but Satin on the back, bottom carve and carve on the head stock. Lots of masking. Everything else electronics, bridge and so on are from the kit. Its almost my perfect guitar. Just wish I had jumbo fret wire. And the input jack was on the front like an S guitar. But man its been so much fun. I'm hooked now. I think my next one will be a red burst. Not sure I have some ideas.

Theresimon that effort is absolutely mental. Love it! great depth of colour and the chamfering of the body edges sets it apart. Wonderful Job!
Might be the only entry for GOTM for March given the high standard of finish.
