Here's how it came out using StewMac polishing products:

That looks 'mahty fahn' as Grand-Pappy used to say.  I like the reflection of the book in the back of the guitar.

SSSSSsswwwwweeeeet!!!!!

That guitar looks vaguely familiar OG. :? :?  I bet it sounds awesome too but wow, does it ever look nice.  Congrats, you did a fine job buffing out the satin.  One day, I'll do my all mahogany parlor...I hope it looks as nice as that!!

Well this is just what I needed to see !  I will be taking delivery of a new OM-03r in a week or so.  I was hoping to find a way to get that exact look.    Did you do the top as well ?     I have to know where to get the StewMac products and exactly how you achieved this great result.   It's exaclty what I want mine to look like.
Great looking guitar.  thanks for the post and pics.

No,
I didn't do the top. I like the satin top because it doesn't show any smudges
For Stew Mac products, go to  http://www.stewmac.com/   and look in the finishing supplies.
I used Color Tone fine polishing compound and then swirl remover rubbed both by hand and
with polishing wheels.
