Members BG76 Posted January 29, 2010 Members Share Posted January 29, 2010 I have this neck kicking around and have a body to match. Does anyone know if these cracks can be solidified somehow without losing the logo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ExiledCrow Posted January 29, 2010 Members Share Posted January 29, 2010 I like it. I'm not a huge fan of relicing, but that has CHARACTER! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Carbohydrates Posted January 29, 2010 Members Share Posted January 29, 2010 anti-relic. . . Do you consider relicing to be such a big 'issue' that you feel the need to take a side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: I like natural checking and relicing a lot, but spiting people sounds like fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members m90guy Posted January 29, 2010 Members Share Posted January 29, 2010 I'd sand it down and apply a starcaster logo on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Angry Tele Posted January 29, 2010 Members Share Posted January 29, 2010 people spend hours with a razor trying to get that. Leave it alone. I believe the relic haters have officially jumped the shark now that they want all wear fixed and all guitars dipped in a vat of plastic just in case.

Members axegrinder Posted January 30, 2010 Members Share Posted January 30, 2010 You could try spraying nitro on it to "re-burn" the surface. But of course I'd leave it be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cassette Posted January 30, 2010 Members Share Posted January 30, 2010 Do you consider relicing to be such a big 'issue' that you feel the need to take a side? I didn't mean I was against relics. . . I meant "anti-relic" as in taking a relic and turning it into a guitar that looks new. . . reverse relicing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
