Vintage Guitar Bass
How does a guitar or bass get that vintage look on its paint?
I have been playing for around ten years, bass and guitar. I'm impressed though, some vintage models of guitars and basses are missing paint in some spots how does that get to happen?
Examples: "Jaco" Pastorius' bass, Stings' bass, John Frusciantes' guitar... etc
Guitars "used to" be finished with Nitrocellulose Lacquer which was moresusceptible to heat/cold/moisture/dry air, etc than newer instruments are. it still happens to newer instruments but the process can take a little longer.
It really depends on how the instrument is handled too. I have a 2001 Stratocaster that some would swear is a vintage guitar but in reality...i used to gig a lot in Northern Minnesota and going from a cold car to a warm bar to a cold car to a warm bar, etc...made the paint expand and contract so much that it started to develop cracks, etc.
Hope that answers your question.
