JapanAxe Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Just checked out the shop's website (no name, no pack drill) and the lacquer has a lot of cracking, not just one crack from clumsy handling. The description (presumably culled from Suhr's bumf) says: [color=#AEAEAE][font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]The nitrocellulose lacquer finish and our proprietary antiquing process make each Classic J Antique[/size][/font][/color][sup]TM[/sup][color=#AEAEAE][font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3] feel like it has been loved for years.[/size][/font][/color] So yes it is deliberate. Up to you whether you want that or want to pay for it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grenadilla Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 I got a white Les Paul with a "Worn" finish. It looks like someone's thumb stayed at the 7th fret, playing their big hit... At least the metal is chrome -no rust . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
