It's tru-oil on the whole guitar. I'm stuck on this organic thing lately. The first coat on the neck I'll thin by 50% and get better penetration on the fingerboard to harden the surface. Applying the finish is still the most difficult part of construction for me. It seems it should be the easiest.
What did you finish the neck with?
Thanks Man, that means a lot coming from the Maestro. I bought a kit to make waterslide decals a few years ago, but always felt it was a little pretentious. I've yet to build one to vend, but should I decide to, I've had the offer to sell on consignment in a local shop that's rather renown. I've sold pickups there in the past. I just don't feel I'm ready to make that step. My stuff is pretty simple, and doesn't look all that remarkable in the context of a fine guitar store. In the meantime though I'm enjoying what I'm doing.Your work is good enough for a decal on the headstock... Own up to it man..
Thanks! I think it's awesome that so many people have visited this thread to see what I'm building in my garage.That's awesome right there!!
