Although tort is considered Classic on many finishes that white on checked seafoam does have a strong retro Vibe. Nice
What's the story on that neck? Peaked interest
How do you like it? I'm assuming the neck needs to be exposed to ample light for the effect to take place as colored LEDs wouldn't have the same effect on the luminescent dots?
Luminlay
I can use my maginashun. I think it looks amazing good sir! Trying to get an accurate photo of mint is like trying to photograph a black cat in a coal bin.
Asked my local but very reputable Tech
how that process might be accomplished.
He said the process for those in the business of relicing is done by first superheating then freezing. But should not be attempted by those faint of heart or low in budget.
Sounds like, "best left to the Professionals" but, I'm thinking, "I always love a challenge".
Thanks
And *I'm* thinking, "Hold my (root) beer, check this out!"
the body and neck are SSB warmoth . This is a 32" . I ordered the Sugar Pine back when they had it in stock and it's amazing . The bass sounds incredible . I got the neck here from one of the lads years ago who was an employee and warmoth and this was some special stash he cut for himself . Their gold frets , Ebony board and no markers . It didn't have side markers either so I put in those Luminlay . I ordered direct from them and it was pretty easy . They look great but they don't glow bright for more than a couple min but they do glow dimly for several min . I like'em , I'd probably get them again if I have a choice . I also got their blue mini light and that recharges them fast .
Just got the body back from Paul Slagle of Pittman guitars and TB member , he can do a relic no doubt about it .
THAT'S the spirit ! Always question authority!
There were some that laughed at CL.

Wow, not what I was expecting.
You see kids, when a Fender and a Warwick love each other very much...
