Woohoo.
Thanks DB. Glad it wasn't totally guessing in the end (I recall an admired Luthier Mr Ormsby making reference to Blackbutt at some stage or another) but geez the hint helped
Really appreciate the opportunity to try out the new finishes you are developing. Email already sent.
Cheers and Thanks Again

Happy to take a get out of Naughty Romm card too.
Can confidently say that all of my evil behaviours were before pitbull existed and distributed wudtone.
My only transgressions might have been some recent wipe on poly...oh bugger. Did I say that? Maybe I have to use the card already....dammit!
Hahahaha! You are safe.. I let everyone out for the Easter break...... oops... forgot to unlock the door.... Oh well, it's the thought that counts....
The Dingotone Guitar Wax will be in the post on Tuesday. It has been formulated to use on fingerboards as well as on the body as a general timber nourisher and body finish protector.
NSW Blackbutt is a very hard timber so it will be interesting to find out how it sounds. I have heavily chambered the body to drasticaly reduce the weight.
This chunk of Quited BB just had to come home with me from my timber suppliers... can you believe it was a return because it had "too much figure"? WTF!?
It is the first time I have seen BB with this much of a quilt, and this is one of the plainer chunks I will be able to get out of the length
There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....
Was really quite taken with the quilt around the edges. Never heard of the idea that timber has too much figure...now that makes no sense at all.
I've got three yet to be started pitbull kits here, but think the Dingotone wax is going to have to go on the TL1TH kit....should be great on that neck
