Does anyone know the best (and fastest) way to age hardware (tuners, bridge, input jacks...). I'd like to create an SRV #1.

Thanks,
Armando

I went to the RelicDeluxe page earlier today, and it was up and running fine. It told me basically what I expected to find, and went into MUCH more detail with specific products than I expected.
We are thining about offing some "Relic" Highway One Strats and Teles for sale at our store. If the relicsdeluxe site goes back up, I will no doubt be using a few of the truicks published there... 8)

would you mind posting some pictures of a highway one finish after relicing... I am seriously considering relicing mine, but am nervous. I read that the nitro is applied over a poly coat, so I'm not sure how well it will turn out.

thanks,
j

What's with you posers and your relics, anyway? I thought this was funny when I heard about it being done to furniture, but guitars?

Do you think that a beat-up strat w/ a gold lefty trem and your initials spelled in mailbox stickers will make you play like SRV?

Keep dreamin' :?
