DIY Truoil Acoustic Guitar Finish 

I'm refinishing only the NECK of my Alvarez acoustic (after having it slimmed way down by a luthier), but your clear demonstrations of steel wool and Tru-Oil are very helpful. There are many YT videos on re-doing necks, but they're all Fender/electric-type close-grain maple necks, totally different from acoustic necks of porous woods like mahogany. Thanks.

I appreciate this video. I have 3 Tacomas; an EM9 I have had since 2002, a DM9(2001) I got used maybe 7 years ago and a Jumbo (2001) with the classic rash that I picked up about 2 years ago. I have wondered about removing the polyester finish of the jumbo and the risk reward. I have also wondered about putting something on the satin finish guitars (EM9 , DM9) to protect them. They are all great guitars and sound amazing especially with K&K pickups in them. Seems like this works well on the satin finish to bring it to a more protected finish.

Have you ever tried Liberon 0000 steel wool? If you haven't done so, I recommend it. It doesn't break apart like other steel wools.

Help. I have a jk50c no electronics with delamination. I don't know where to start. Do I have to remove the bridge and everything?

Great job ! Love them Tacoma s Definitely a great under the radar guitar! I own two a 2006 er28c and a 2005 dm9 I’ve played Martin and Taylor’s and I agree they sound just as good

Ryan did a refinish on a Tacoma C3C that I now own. He does great work!

very cool, thanks for sharing

What’s your thoughts on rubo one coat it has a catilast to it they use it on river tables or osmosis oil

Parabéns . Trabalho magnífico !

I dropped my Tacoma DR55 off at a guitar mechanic a couple days ago and he told me it wasn't worth putting a lot of money into it. The action is too high and the bridge is lifting up in the back. He really didn't want to work on it.
