Nobody here needs this information but I thought I'd post a few short youtube vids on two new processes I'm trying out. Someone could maybe find it useful in the future.
These are not 'productions', just clips and very amateur

Great explanation Dave. Great voice.
It is a fast and easy way to go, if you like natural finishes.
Beginners will find this a good way to make their guitars presentable.
Without the hassle of gloss finishes.
Thanks mate

Thanks H!
My hope is that this new process - I have not given up on Tru-oil btw - will prove to be more than 'acceptable'. We shall see.
Stay healthy ya'll. Don't move to Oregon, governor Kate Brown has lost her friggin' mind. Just sayin'.

I've been particularly interested in the semi-gloss/satin finish the Lowden and others are using. That is the look I'm going for as for gloss level. I think the grain in that pic should be more vivid however.
