I just finished my partscaster inspired by some of new Charvel models.
It is my first attempt of tobacco burst finish without using spray gun.
Well.. I don't have the spray gun.  :sad1:
I used Stew Mac water stains and wipe on poly for the body finish.
Tru-oil for the neck. Tru-oil does the best job as always.

It took only 4 days for all the finish job. The finish is very thin and there are few imperfections here and there.
I'd call them "aged finish"

I might add few more coats of wipe on poly later.

It has a sort of antique look to it. Pretty cool :-)

I could not help noticing the non fine tuner Floyd and the spoke wheel truss rod. Do you want to mention more about the specs of the guitar ?
