Embarrassing admission....Happy Number 38 guitar to me.

Looks great!
Interested to see how this one comes out.

Thanks for the interest.

I went to Bunnings today.....Golden Teak and now some Elm stain in the arsenal. The Cabots range has an interior and exterior range of spray Poly. Both appear to be oil based. I got a can of both Gloss and Satin.....$6 per can dearer for exterior stuff. I bought the exterior stuff.

I think I will see how the shellac has dried this afternoon.....put an extra coat on the back before I went out.

I think it will be Elm on the back, and another coat of Golden Teak on the sides..... I like the look Tru oil gives the wood.....maybe three coats of it then hang for a week and then spray Gloss all over the body.

The neck I am going to finish with the Satin.....will let it hang for about a week now.

The headstock will get a couple of gloss coats and then some decals and then some final coats of Gloss and a good buff. I hope the colours come out alright.
