Some progress has been made for the last few days...
-Tried avocado oil on fretboard. (couldn't resist working on my kit..) seems okay. Used steelwool and it worked like magic, fretboard is not much better.
-woodfiller for neck joints/ sanded the next day to smooth out.
-First rough coat sanded roughly.
My next step is to sand the body lightly again then apply black wood stain.
*Not sure about the best way to protect binding. There are cracks on binding it self which I cannot remove once stain gets in..
Seems like masking tape, then scraping is the most common way.
