A recent "relic" job on a Silver Anniversary Strat.

Had the original silver Poly finish with "Silver Anniversary" letters under the clear coat. Customer sent a picture of an old guitar to replicate.

We repainted with nitro laquer and mimicked all the same wear, dents, scratches, etc.

In addition, we did our period correct authentic finish checking treatment. Zoom in on it..!

Some thin finishes wear down smoothly...Thick finishes tend to "chip".....this is a "Chipper"..!!!

Just like the sample from a vintage guitar shop in France.

Mike McManus recommends Texas Guitar Hospital: "Great technician at a very fair price. Dave has been doing great setups and repairs for a long time. Also building Robin instruments! I bet if you're real nice you might be able to talk him into building a one-off dream custom one for you too. Not only did he do a great job on my Rick 4003 - years ago I also got some Rio Grande pups for a P bass. Now it's one badass full sounding kick in the face bass!"

Thanks for the great job on my Taylor guitar, you would never know by looking at it that it was cracked. Keep up the good work.

Just because a guitar is new doesn't mean that it is playing properly. Let us take a look. The inspection won't cost a dime. Maybe the string heights at the nut need to be adjusted or the saddles don't follow the radius of the fingerboard. What ever the case is, we have you covered
