Okay...
So I got the body "abused" and went to staining it and puttin on the Tru Oil. Had a hard time banging the body and poking extra holes in it - my heart almost bled but in the end... well you decide.

I really love the flames on the fretboard. Gray stain sanded away and TO on the neck.
The real color is way more brown than in these pics.
