GUITAR AGEING
We have had a lot of customers over the years who have required repairs or wanted respray's, but did not want to lose the authentic look of their old relic. Some people spend a lot of money on a brand new guitar and they just don't like the 'new look' that it has or they want something more original looking.
We are able to offer many different types and levels of ageing depending on the customers requirements such as... Nitrocellulose cracking, dents, scratches, wear marks, discolouration of plastics, fingerboard wear.... anything! (Sorry we no longer offer resprays - eg. colour change).
