Lots of taping, paint brushing poly on edges and binding.....and we have a 3 coats tru oil neck with a maple stain headstock.
The body has a single coat of maple on the front and a single coat of golden teak on the sides. I am yet to decide what to do with the back....thinking maybe one more shellac coat and then finish over the lot.
I will sand the edges to 400 now....even out the tape lines....see what I have and then most likely run a very light coat of golden teak over again.
The faux binding is doing its job....one photo you can see some stain on it....wiped straight off.
The fingerboard is a quandary. Natural with some wax.....tru oil with some wax...spray with poly????
I am thinking that the whole body will get spray gloss uv stabilised exterior Cabots Polyurethane.
