By the way, if Offset Guitar chat is also Surf Guitar chat, I now have Surfy Industries outboard reverb units and pedals in stock at Tone Lounge. And check out their Blossom Point pedal.

Wait, did they ship nitro to you??
It’s not nitro, apparently. All of their products are water-based. The website reckons nitro dulls the tonez.

Before nitro, acoustic instruments were French polished for an even thinner and less protective finish. I expect when nitro came along all the gear snobs were very disparaging. :-)
I am a complete skeptic when it comes to the tonal effects of paints, especially on electric guitars. But nitro just ages the right way in my eyes.
I must admit that nitro certainly does age right.
However, as a novice in guitar finishes, credit must be given for wudtone for making a really easy to use bit of kit! I couldn't care less whether they think nitro isn't good for tone or not haha, I'm just happy with their product!

That's purdy, but I suspect that the control plate not being parallel with the bridge would trigger me. :lol:

No. It’s a Tele with a tumour.
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

It's a Tele that has been melted.
