My second build st-1 with tone rider pickups and Grover tuners
Finished with black stain and Cromax 2 pack clear
G'day Mike,
Still here but haven't built since the Tuff Dog Tele, as for the ST-1 I can't remember of it was Septone or SCA and a bright yellow acrylic and which ever it was I used the same brand undercoat and clear.
It's now got Tonerider Vintage Classics in place of the kit items and sounds great.
I've not held another PB ST but my one also has a chunky vintage fat neck, don't know if this is standard but I love it
Rattle cans Mike
ST-1 by me, in Feast Watson Wipe on poly satin :)

Love that finish, black scratch guard and chrome screws really set it off.
