That'll buff out.
Seriously though, looks like a great candidate for restoration. No hunting down vintage correct parts.

I really wish I had an old, or even new, piece of poplar to go back on the body. Anyone got anything they'd sell me?

I’m not sure where you’re located, but back in Atlanta, Home Depot sold decent sized chunks of poplar. Not sure if it would be dry enough for this, but I found some good stuff there in the past.

Roasted ash. I just had to use what I had in the scrap pile

fair enough...my ocd wouldn't be able to cope with not having the same piece of wood on there...none available via mail order?
