Well, for me it's a disease in the opposite direction from building these gits. I mean on a diddley (board) I don't sand at all. On a neck I or someone is going to play I use 60 (or perhaps on occasion 100) grit and just play 'em. Stuff I do for myself I don't even put a finish on. Lazy, other priorities... both. If it's for me I figure I'd rather spend the time and effort on playing or building another and another version sort of thing.

Thanks the encouraging comments, Glenn.  I hear you on the sanding. It took my wife reminding me to take my time and finish it right to keep me from putting on one or two coats and calling it good.  I was wanting to get it done. I'm very pleased with how it turned out.

Ha, thanks, well hope it made the yard work more pleasurable for you!Thanks, nice look... I like blue and red and some of the cool colors I see in CBN and often wonder how they got so cool... helpful, thanks. I love working with stain but don't like sanding... and much of what I build is proof-of-concept and for an object lesson re. "garbage" so I don't work to make it look all that nice. But I'm tempted when I see work like yours Jeremy! Nice.

Thanks. The neck is oak. The finish is several coats of Indigo Minwax water-based wiping stain with several coats of Minwax clear semi-gloss water-based Polycrylic spray.

BTW, my world just got a little smaller, I was listening to while I was doing some yard work this morning... Too cool dude. :)
