Clear Finish Over Adhesive Letters

That is pretty much how the guitar manufacturers do it. Most use either water slides and/or adhesive backed lettering or logos, then clear over with lacquer or other clears. Go for it.

I have done the exact thing you are talking about many times with lacquer or acrylic finishes. I have never had a problem. I would make sure the danish oil has ample time to cure. Oil finishes take a long time depending on the temperature and humidity.

Be careful with lacquer and water slides. Test first to see if the lacquer will dissolve the water slide. As I recall from my model airplane building, there is a compatibility problem. In the past, I have worked around this by using an airbrush to mist on a few coats of lacquer.The mist is almost dry when it hits the water slide and you can slowly build up enough of a base so you can finish applying more coats of lacquer.
