You bass is missing finish. It need Finish first. Then you can worry about how to polish and protect it.

Like waching and waxing a car. If the Paint is missing, there is nothing to wash or wax. It needs Paint! No?
I understand. So except from the Scotch Brite your next suggestion is a total re-finish of the whole body?

Nothing I can do just to protect the bare wood and get somewhere close the same color as the rest of the bass?
