The fresh kit of Dingotone did the trick!
I ended up having to strip the body back to bare wood to remove all traces of the multiple layers of the original product.
A quick re-stain with the little bit of stain that I had left, 3 coats of Intensifier and 3 coats of Finish later gave me a result that I'm happy with.
The surface isn't flawless and the finish isn't perfect but I'm happy and so will my daughter be. If I'd wanted flawless and perfect I'd have gone and bought my daughter a finished 'shop' telecaster.
I'm about to fit the neck and hardware so I'm on track to have it finished for the kids 21st birthday on the 5th of next month.
A young bloke a Custom Music in Wagga Wagga is going to do the fine tuning for me.
Really looking forward to hearing it play for the first time.
