Thanks to advice from here and elsewhere, I have the old finish pretty much removed from the top of the old Gibson A Junior I just bought.
Some of the old stain goes pretty deep, so there's still some gray. But it's probably time to stop sanding and finish it.
I like the leathery look of Weber Gallatins. I don't need to duplicate it, but I'd like to achieve something like it. What would you use? Dye? Stain? Tung oil? Varnish? Shellac?
Almost needless to say, I'm no pro and not aiming at perfection or expensive solutions (pun intented). Believe me, anything will be an improvement!
Thanks!
