Yea Joe, same here, but I like to go a little higher 1500-2000 grit :)

I've only used Danish oil once, and found that it had an oddly fishy smell; it's possible that it was just the can that I had but it definitely put me off using it more.

In my experience with Danish oil on my full size geet builds,it's been generally great. Dries much faster than boiled linseed and you can get it tinted dufferent colors. My favorite is Golden Oak.

One thing...at least for me,...is that the very pourous ed grain of Doug Fir and Redwood can get muddy from the pigment. Regular wood stain is worse. I have started using Teak Oil too. I like Boiled Linseed the best, but it takes forever to dry...

I wet sand the headstock and back of my necks with Danish oil - 400/800/1000 - come out smooth as glass

Danish oil is for anything that’s wood?

can Danish Oil be used as a finish?

Hi, and if the nut has a square front face up against the fingerboard, measure from that front face. The scale length is from string contact point at the nut to string contact point at the saddle.

String height [too much] and or lack of compensation at the bridge end can contribute to out-of-tune notes when fretting.

Check your intonation, a string should be the same note strummed open and when fingered at the 12 fret. Only an octave apart.
Cheers Taff

oh, ok.

If the nut is rounded like a bolt, yes, measure from the center?
