yorks5stringer Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Someone could use a surface that abrasive to "file the frets nice and smooth"..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commando Jack Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 It actually looks like a zomibe guitar, like it once had proper skin that was burned off by acid. It would be class for halloween! Signed, The eternal optimist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tauzero Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 With the decline in the fortunes of bees this year due to the heavy rain, and the market being cornered by Mark D Phillips, the price of beeswax is likely to go through the roof.

shizznit Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I had a Hohner strat copy when I was a kid that a painted with a can of silver car touch up paint. The paint reacted with the original finish and went flaky just that this guitar. Looked awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soloshchenko Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Cheers for the comments guys! I just won this! Er, awkward. I actually really like the fini...only joking. It looks like the spew of a student on a three day snakebite bender. I'll be sanding down and giving it a tung oil finish asap and looking for a cheap neck. Should make a half decent slide guitar fingers crossed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soloshchenko Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Not as bad as first feared. Might actually be a candidate for a natural oil finish! [IMG]http://i46.tinypic.com/x6hik5.jpg[/IMG] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
