wow Grant that burl veneer is going to look fully sick !
Are you planning natural finish ? No need for stain there are very nice natural colours in the myrtle burl.
I got some red myrtle veneer at home from memory has a similar colour minus the burl

I was thinking along the same lines.
Well, you learn something new every day, thanks for that info Tony
So I'm guessing the heat from wax potting doesn't bother the poly, that's why you use it?
haha i dip my Fender style pickups in Behlen satin poly before i wind them, so you will never get a short wire against the pole.
yes all the mahogany bodies I have stained red or brown suits the hue in the 'hog'
