Can't beat the smell of French Polish IMHO...for guitars anyways.
Speaking of finish, while Tom has done quite a few french polish guitars, he's keen to move to something a bit more dutrable on his guitars. I think we'll be using the same stuff that Stefan Sobell uses on his guitars - a 2-pack melamine. There's a guy over here in the UK that a lot of builders use - I think he's called David Wilson? Information here:

So, to satisfy all of the Padauk love going on here, Tom has sent me pics of the back and sides (I'm hoping all of the cr*p on the sides isn't permanent!):
The kerfing being glued in:
And the B+S together:
I think he is sending pics of the spruce top next?
Cheers,
