very interested to see your finishing schedule on the curly redwood top of the tele. I just finished a curly redwood archtop, the flame is about the same as yours, and did a red/brown to yellow sunburst using dyes hand rubbed over a shellac seal coat. I was able to enhance the flame a bit, but nothing I tried really got it to pop. Looking forward to see what you do.
