I also wiped a wet cloth over the top before commencing.Quote:

Burst looks amazing Andrew! Great job. Will really pop once the oil soaks in. This is shaping up to be a classic.

Cheers everyone. Gav, from memory you mentioned in your ash lp that colortone and tru oil made a good combo.. you were right there!
Some more progress, have started dyeing the side and backs. One coat red, 2x red mahogany, 1x black. I'll give this one more black then naughty oil it off. Same treatment for neck.
