Small update. I wasn't happy with the TO applied to the fret-board so have commenced scraping in between the frets with a Stanley blade. I'm over half way done and I've rubbed in and polished up the wood with Dingotone Guitar Wax where TO removed. Looks heaps better and the scraping has actually improved the look of the grain. Once I've finished I'll post a pick. Apart from that full steam ahead with the rest of the TO neck finish!

What was the issue? When I did my first one I found 2 very light TO coats were good, although I did use DT guitar wax on my latest build.
