Thank you! I have the space to finish it in one piece. I'm going to have a natural polyurethane finish on it. My only concern is; how should I finish the rosewood fretboard, any ideas?

The rosewood boards generally get left until you are ready for final set up, most treat them with lemon oil or a similar fretboard treatment. Typically they will be a bit dry, so they will drink in a fair bit of the oil at first. You apply, let it soak in and then remove any excess. It should leave the board with a nice sheen to it. After that its just a periodic maintenance thing.

Thank you for the tip!
