Members dangordan Posted January 12, 2010 Members Share Posted January 12, 2010 if you think what james does is a "relic," there's little help for you. If you don't think putting metal in the elements to rust properly is relicing then what is it? +I'll stay a step above you and avoid personal insults. For a guitar made of metal I'd recommend LMG.

Members aenemated Posted January 12, 2010 Members Share Posted January 12, 2010 it's a finish. he's not taking a goddamn plain old stratocaster and dragging it behind a pickup to make it look beat up or putting photo-finishes on some "roadworn" {censored}. but anyone that talks of silly {censored} like "mojo" ... it's probably pointless to discuss anything with. one would have better luck with a tea partier.

Maybe more craftsmanship involved but the same idea. Now go enjoy some tea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Puckman Posted January 12, 2010 Members Share Posted January 12, 2010 Well, considering he ain't starting with Fender parts, or pre-existing "licensed parts" and relicing them, I don't see how this is in any way similar to relic'ing. I don't like tea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Bbreaker Posted January 12, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 12, 2010 WOW! Thats REALLY sweet. Have you played one, or is that experience yet to be? Every Trussart I've played sounded great.Most had fret overhang.I went over the Steelphonic with the salesman focusing on the fret ends, neck, build and tone.I actually called GC Nashville with the intention of buying their Steel Top Trussart. I was told that the fret ends were noticeably sharp on it.We then spoke about the Steelphonic. I did some research and decided to go with the Steelphonic. If I don't like it, I can return it to the nearest GC and get a full refund less shipping cost to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
