Thanks, I’ve pointed him in the direction of your instagram and made positive comments about what I’ve seen of your work. I think he’s considering his options while he gets stuck into removing the old finish. @jonhodgson Thanks, I noticed… Read more»

considering how much money people will pay for a reliced guitar maybe there’s a business opportunity here for a whole new class of buggered finish?
@jonhodgson 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Well, never say never. 👍

I think Bailey would be a good place to get a quote from. Mark has the best finish on any guitars I’ve seen and probably the longest lasting due to it being oil based. -

Cheers @jonhodgson. I was stretching a bit when thinking of possible upsides for that tool!

Thanks for the pointer. -
