Prostheta Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 Cocobolo won't take oil, so it might not take finishes easily. No experience myself, but you do have a fair amount of grain filling for the purpleheart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess if i grain fill the neck i should put on some coats of laquer then? How many coats do u think then? Oh and ill probably leave the cocobolo natural Edited January 24, 2007 by ddv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
