Incredible detail and attention to the finest areas are what sets his work apart from everyone. After seeing 10,000 or more guitars in every shape, and condition, you get to understand how they age with use.\u00a0 That&#8217;s the difference from Dragging a guitar behind a truck or wiping it with sandpaper.<br \/>\nRelic work is an art form.<\/p>\n<p>When someone inspects your guitar, repairs your guitar, even disassembles to verify the age, we want them to think they are looking at The Real McCoy.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Beautiful and random lacquer checking in only the naturally appropriate areas.<\/li>\n<li>Material correct aging and patina on Nickel, Chrome, and Gold parts<\/li>\n<li>Plastic and printing work is indistinguishable from an actual vintage part<\/li>\n<li>Areas hidden by parts and plastic show the period quality natural wear, different from the exposed areas.<\/li>\n<li>These are just among many of the things that most relic artists avoid because of the time it takes.<\/li>\n<li>You&#8217;re trusting us with valuable instruments to antique and distress.
