I am building a hard maple neck for a new instrument

Does hard maple take stain ok?

I'm wanting to use a light stain by inward called Golden Pecan

Any help much appreciated

Practice on some scrap maple if you can.

  One thing I like about about Minwax is the way it also seals/finishes the wood. I tend to flood the piece and let it soak in, adding more on porous woods.
