This should be good ….
Should be up and running in no time, good luck.
Another one I quite like is available in Sainsburys, and comes in an aerosol, called Wood Silk, which is just a really thin beeswax.
It protects the finish, and soaks in quite well on something like Ash, and I have had good results on walnut too.
Rosewood is already quite an oily wood ( which is why it is often not finished over- just re-oiled ) so it is pretty difficult to get the same results as a hard nitro finish, as far as shine, I guess a high sheen is the best to expect, but it is easy to maintain.
I have a solid rosewood neck on one of my strats, and I am not sure what to think about the tone of it, certainly something different.
Danish oul will be a better bet than tru-oil if you want to keep it feeling its best. Normally I would say tru-oil, but rosewood doesn't need as much protection as other woods.
The slurry method works great with Danish oil, and a rub down with natural briwax and 0000 liberon steel wool at the end before a buff with a so ft clothwill leave it feeling amazing and give a nice natural looking soft semi gloss

Thank you. I decided against Tru Oil on your advice, and resolved to buy some Danish oil.
I don’t know what it is beyond the description on the front, but it’s a sort of cloudy white colour.
Might be worth giving it a few thin coats, and then trying to forget about it for a couple of weeks before you try to polish it up.
I do recommend looking for Woodsilk in Sainsburys if you get a chance, it is a pretty foolproof finish for all sorts of things.
