    I致e only gone and done it!!

    Today I have ordered my TL-1, with a light coloured neck. I知 really looking forward to getting into it. I have kept it stock and will be painting it a solid colour, sort of like a very light blue.
    I decided to order this today as we are off to Bali on Saturday for 10 days so when we get back I値l only have to collect this from the post office, no waiting as such.

    One question I want a matt finish neck, do I just apply tru oil and that痴 it?

    No experience with tru oil, but I've done a couple of necks now with Cabots Satin Polyurethane and they are great.

    #2 for the Cabothane, super finish, hardwearing and very easy to use.

    Tru Oil can do satin but does gloss so much better.

    While chilling in a coffee shop in Bali, my mind started imagining and wandering. I started doodling.
