I was trying to make Vivid black grain in colour just like you did on Red JB. That contrast was great and what i really had expected on my bass, however, when I finished filling grain, i noticed black dye was not enough in Timbermate to pop grain up... so i decided to change to whole strong colour with normal grain, that resulted a bit too much water i applied. Thank you for advice for fillings method. It helps me a lot for the control grain definition for future project.

While I am working on body for staining, i'm also dealing with neck. i am thinking to apply the methodology of water-based acrylic varnish on body for neck with Tru-oil as well, coating 20-30 times and sanding down to make flat surface and polishing at the end. so far finished 15 TO coating on the neck in photo below. If you have any pre-caution for this process, your advice will be very appreciated.
