Some people might remember my failure with a heat gun a few months ago. Well my new palm sander arrived yesterday and after a few hours this afternoon I've gone from this
To this.
I think it's a pretty nice body for a Squier tele. Still have part of the sides to do but with a bit of luck should be finished sanding tomorrow. So do I
A - leave it natural and go for a tru oil finish
B - Wudtone dairy blonde
C -
@Andyjr1515 's patented calligraphy ink and ronseal technique probably purple.
So what do you all think? I genuinely can't decide.

Body has been fully sanded to 320 grit and I've ordered some Ruby, Dark Orchid and Purple ink to hopefully start staining next weekend.
In the meantime here's some end of the day sun pics of the body wiped down with naphtha

I'm secure enough with my masculinity to not only suggest a pink finish for a guitar, but I would be happy to play a pink sparkly one as well, as for knobs though, now we're getting into serious territory, I'm very very particular when it comes to the knobs on guitars, knobs can make or break guitars in my books, they not only have to be of good quality, but they also have to 'fit' and 'match' the guitar, the style of the guitar and finish of the guitar they are on.
