I don''t understand why you don't get more views. I really like your videos. I can't help but thinker with my guitars either and you give some good insight.

This video is right on point…I have an old Kramer from around ‘84 and I sanded off the logo cuz there was a time when it wasn’t cool to have a shedder guitar…so now that my Kramer is “vintage” I need to do this to get it back to original…thanks so much my man!!!

Dude… the ladder with the tarp. Thank you so much 😂

Dude you need to invest in a good 3M mask to protect you from the vapors!

This is the first video that popped up in a Google search for How to laquer a guitar neck, so it is getting views in google. Thanks for the video..Ya figure, with metal strings always rubbing up against the finish, it has to be pretty strong....

cool!

I tried something similar with my charvel. Wanted the toothpaste logo, got my dad to make a waterslide for me. Applied it after sanding and staining. But without a layer of paint under it. I used Nitro clear without softeners, it should crack faster. It cracked while drying on the waterslide. Maybe because i didnt lacquer the headstock

The maple board Glarry bass necks only have sanding sealing at most on the back, boards are raw. They have enough meat on the peghead to reshape them like Tele's.

Love nitro ! That is all Gibson Guitars use !

Did you polish the fretboard after the last layer? Or survived without sanding?

I have been using WATCO brushing lacquer. That is also nitro

What can you do if you have a rosewood fretboard?

If anyone watching this tries this at home, please wear a respiratory of some kind. Nitrocellulose is extremely toxic.

As a wood finisher, boat painter, occasional car, etc, there is zero special about nitro, or cheap one part lacquer in general like you're using which isn't nitro based. The problem with that stuff you're using is it's not thinned down for the base coats and won't sink into the wood. However, it's light years better than poly, or poly type mixes, oil, etc, for a guitar because it looks, feels, and plays good. You can buy a cheap sprayer, some nitro, thin and tint depending on coat process, all for cheaper than buying those tint cans plus the cheap HD cans, fyi. The entire reason relics are popular is because old-school nitro wore out quick, making a guitar look worn. But, it still is the best choice imho. And a 120$ thinline! Wtf

OR put a closed off bag over the body, if you're too lazy to take the neck off the body. Many believe the neck is quite settled in after a while and don't want to remove the neck out of worry that putting it back just wont quite feel the same anymore. I'm personally not that picky but some are and this might bug them. Just sayin. Decent strategy to avoid getting metal splinters on ur pickups without removing the neck.
