    If it were me, I wiould put on 4 coats of shellac, sand it back down to bare wod to fill the grain first. You can repeat that process with 400 or 600 grit paper til the grain is filled, that way your top coat will have a level surface to start and save some sanding later. I would go with true oil or general finishes arm r seal, do three thin coats, level it with 1k paper, 3 more coats cut it back with 1500 or 2k paper and buff.
    Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.
