Can anyone tell me how worn the nitro is on a Closet Classic?

Is it worn to a satin finish, or would that be just a Relic thing?

Its not that worn. Mine just has some crazing in the paint and a slightly dul finish. Mines Oly white so its hard to see anything.

Thanks for the reply.

How's the finish on the neck?

Has that been dulled?

Hi I have some closet classic strats.... all time machines. They all have a satin finish including the necks. The 56 also has crazing across the surface of the nitro body but with the others the surface is just dulled.
If you were getting one specifically made, if you can make it clear to what degree you would like the relicing process especially on the neck.
I really like the closet classic finish it feels played in but not too beat up.
I don't care about the mojo of having a pre aged guitar which seems a bit artificial.
It is just a more comfortable non slippery feel especially with the nitro.
I do not like relicing on the neck and I have heard of some classics taken to this level.
Hope this helps :D
