Buy my snake oil. I reckon I'll keep all of my old strings, then shove them in the compost heap for a week or so, then start selling 'relic'ed strings'. Just the thing for that vintage tone... :)

Your turnaround could be faster than that. It looks like it's simply been left in coke.
I tried cleaning some old tuners in coke over night once and this is exactly how they turned out - eaten through to the nickel.

It's a very poor relic job. I mean how is the depressed section in the F supposed to have been rubbed away over time. Mugs. :)
