Yes, the straight grain of the white ash on the current GST-1 kits definitely suits a nice simple finish.

I tried it first with Tru Oil on an Ash P Bass kit built for a customer and I really liked how the finished guitar looked.
I have an old Strat kit (my first ever build) and I have upgraded the pickguard on that with better pots and Tonerider single coils. It sounds very good so may swap it for the new kit pickguard as I like the look of the natural finish.
