    A nice tone and finish there, much better than trying to stain a beech stock !
    I achieved something similar with a pale walnut stock belonging to a Fwb 300S although that took 15 coats of Tru Oil each one rubbed down with fine steel wool.

    Yeah, I've got a Falcon fn19 walnut thumbhole stock which came out very light. That one, I just sanded down and waxed! It looks as good as if it has been oiled.
