thanks @Wokks, yeah it's getting there. you can still see them if you know where to look, but I might stop now so as not to tempt fate.

cheers,
Gav.

nice save Gav.

I've found that if you look at a finish and think "not bad, I wonder if.." then STOP..

[gavinturner]

yes @Stan exactly! better to quit while you're ahead, even if it isn't perfect.

cheers,
Gav.

looks really nice, but in your last picture it looks like the top is cracked at the bottom? I love the transition. I would like to make a few practice attempts at staining on some scrap wood before going onto the instrument.

Well spotted, Eagle Eye

Just a guess but I would say that line in the top towards the bottom would be the join in the cap veneer.
