I've now spayed a few coats of clear, and I think it's looking good. I think I'm going to stop there and leave it alone for a couple of weeks. I've still got some clear left, but I think I'll keep that in case I need to patch anything up. The surface isn't great - I'm working outside, so it's got some dust in it, but I'm hoping that'll all clear up when I sand it.
The neck is also progressing will, with four coats of Tru Oil on it now. The tiger stripe in this maple is really showing up nicely.
