Title: now that my guitar looks a bit messed up
Post by: Transcend on May 10, 2007, 12:19:10 PM

right now i have the burnt chrome miracle man in the bridge of my agile les paul the problem is the neck pickup is gold (not much of a prob gonna be replacing with cold sweat) and so is the hardware

i was wondering if i could get aged/distressed hardware for les paul type guitars or even black??

but i do want decent quality and price isnt too much of an issue but i dont wanna go stupid.

then again it does look quite cool ina  twisted sort of way how it is.

i shall post pics later.

Black hardware is easy to find, aged stuff is harder and I've never seen any advertised anywhere.

why not age it yourself with various stuff like steel wool, tea bags (to stain white to a more aged colour) and screwdrivers
