    Been a while between updates, but have just been slowly adding tru oil layers and sanding back, just did a 1200 grit wet sand and it feels so smooth!

    Also shaped the headstock. I had some Bloodwood neck dingotone left over from my last build. I really like the colour of it after it's faded, my tele neck looks sick, so I tried out a coat on the neck. It's a bit intense at the moment - I could ride it out and wait for it fade over time, or maybe just lightly sand back and do fewer coats.

    As anyone tried lightening dingotone?

    The last photo is the neck from my tl-1 , which I did about a year ago. I love this colour and so want to aim for it again. Same Bloodwood DT, just seems like it fades over time
