Here`s a neck I recently finished. Stained it first, then a couple of coats with tru-oil. After the tru-oil had been curing for a while, I hit it with some very fine steel wool and micromesh. It`s pretty darn close to my `68 in terms of feel.

Hey, I know this is an old post, but darn! I can almost feel how smooth that neck looks by your picture. Can you elaborate on how long you let the truoil cure for and what grit micromesh you used?

Thanks!
