    I used Feast Watson stains, with 70%-50% diluted Brown teak and walnut that I airbrushed on for the burst, then Cabots satin poly. All available at the big green shed.

    For a finish similar to that Harmony, I'd go and look at DarkMarks builds. He has his finger on the pulse of that style of guitar.
    Cheers - I'll check DM's builds!!

    Hey, that’s me!
    NUTS! The last nut I fitted I sanded it too low. I had a second one spare and did EXACTLY the same thing again. Then I glued a piece of purfling to the bottom of the first nut and sanded to the right height.
    This has turned out stunning, SM. I think I’ll have to check out this Cabots satin.
    Seriously good.
