    I’ve never built a guitar FrankenWashie, what clear gloss would you suggest? Currently I’m favouring Tru Oil. I guess wipe on poly is the other popular option?

    I’ve never used tru oil, but a lot of the forum swear by it. Poly is an option if you don’t mind the pong. I have had some good results with the Dingo Tone clear finish and Neck finish (just no luck with the black stump). I am using a rustoleum clear spray on with my SV and ST builds at the moment, which is going quite well, though it takes a lot of patience and careful spraying.
