I have made a few attempts to relict guitars, some good results some not so good.. Here you will find very good descriptions and advices (that I should have read before my destruction/relicting) AND to all the male members of this forum; There are great pictures of nearly nude ladies also! Thatīs sooooooooo good
I read an article last year in the 'Guitarist' Magazine where the editor and 4 other staff writers were all given a yamaha pacifica to 'customise' the ed decided to go for a rory gallagher type finish involving a BBQ and a can of nitromors paint stripper.......the pics of the guitar turned out pretty goood...the other went for more modest changes like pickups and scratchplates etc.....
If anyone here isn't sure paint stripper is extremely flammable and isn't meant to be used with a naked flame so be warned..... it burns paint with a chemical process in the stripper itself.....
