G&L's Rustic finishes

Post by Its_Him_Again »

They are probably the best "relic" paint work I have ever seen (though the work on the hardware and the plastic is not too good looking). Who do they hire to do the work? I'm guessing they don't do it themselves. If I ever have anyone who wants to get a guitar beat up, I'd like to send him or her to the same person who does it for G&L.

Thanks.

Yes, the Rustic finishes are done by an outside vendor. I will see if I can find out who this vendor is.

Stay tuned.

Thank you, Craig. Any word from G&L yet? I'm very curious.

Nope, I'll ask again next week.

Stay tuned.
