Super cool how willing you are to share your process. It surprised me to hear the demand for high end custom builds exceeds the small label builders at the moment. Another fantastic video, thank you so much for posting!
That is a Terra bass, built in North Carolina- probably in the 1990’s. I recognize the keyhole inlay and rounded neck heel design. Probably only a few made, and my friend knew the luthier and had him build a six string for him back around 1994-95. You do great work, and I really like your approach to each issue you encountered. The headplate looks great!
We use Osmo hard wax oil (gloss finish). We apply 3 to 5 coats and knock back with a superfine abrasive pad between coats. Then hand rubbed to desired shine. Final clean up with Howards Feed N Wax product.

How did you manage to achieve a glossy shine on the guitar body using oil? Did you use any additional products?
