Hi Greg, not sure what you mean but if on the body, no, you do not put any finish inside where the neck joins body. As for neck heel, Yes, it does need to be finished and if using Tru Oil it shouldn't build up much of a thickness. I have done 5 bolt-on necks this way using TO and all worked out fine.
