    New build from Darwin

    Hey gang, have recently received a TL1-A as my first project and am really enjoying the process so far.

    One question straight off the bat is where do I find the tutorial videos? I have found a few but cannot find anything to help show how to finish the maple neck/fretboard with the dingotone neck kit.

    I still need to sand the neck but also was wondering if I need to also sand the fretboard (maple) and then how to treat the fretboard (do I do the same as the back of the neck?)

    I have only ever owned rosewood fretboards and have just used lemon oils but know that you cannot with the maple fretboard.

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Cheers,
    Sam
