Advice on finishing a maple Warwick body

Recommended Posts

Hello. I've pretty much done what seems like 20hrs of sanding over the weekend on my ex bogie green Warwick Fortress. Now it is a natural beauty with a lovely wood grain - I love it, I believe it is a 2 piece maple body. I guess I'm a little stuck on what to do next if honest. I want to keep it natural but don't mind if it darkens or yellows a little. Sooooo, I have some Linseed oil - should I just oil it then perhaps put some bees wax on? Or should i try a different type of oil or something else???? Any other suggestions ??? I am of course a complete novice at this but so far so good :) Thanks - A photo from 2 days ago - [attachment=134264:912999_10151462278544473_149322798_n.jpg]
