Good advice Woks. On veneer I usually stain, no sanding. Then the sanding back process also sorts out any glue spots, killing two birds with one stone.

that's a sweet looking kit Moose, I like the idea for a stained front and a darker back and sides, keen to see this one being done, they are just such an awesome looking guitar hope my collection will stretch far enough to include one.
Sanding and more sanding, preparing to dry fit the hardware and set the neck.
Very happy with the maple pattern on the top.
looking sweet as Moose, so what stain you going with again ?

I'm still trying to decide on color, likely a natural/amber top and neck with darker back and sides. Finish will be Tru Oil on dye, or shellac.
