Attempting a gold top kit build

What's Hot
So I bought a Les Paul style kit build, Always fancied having a go at one, and thought that making or at least finishing my own build might help alleviate my current GAS. 


I'm hoping to finish the guitar as a gold top (think 1957 gold top). Whether it's a dark back or not will depend on how many parts the mahogany body comes in. I wanted to get some advice on finishing the guitar. Do i add the gold finish directly onto the bare maple top and then coat in a thin layer of nitro? 

And also what would you recommend for the back and neck of the guitar? 

Apologies for my basic questions, I'm a newbie to this and just fancied learning a little about it.
