TL-1L First build

Good work on the headstock, except you cut it backwards

As for neck finish, I've not used the Dingotone products at all so can't offer much advice on that.
However with maple fretboards it is generally standard practise to seal them. I don't know what the DT "final coat" consists of, but in the description of the Final Top-Coat it states: "It will give you a hard finish that protects the neck and provides a silky smooth neck feel when playing." So I presume it is some kind of polymerised finish. This is typically what is used on maple fretboards.

So with your other option: FW stain & wipe-on poly (presuming both oil-based) no problem. Also recommend doing both back and fb as mentioned above.

McCreed its backwards. Oh no. Can I glue the pieces back on and try again or just turn it around so it's right lol.

Thanks for your input. So confusing sometimes all this talk for a newbie on stains, poly, water based solvent based etc.
