[ Bonne idée / Mauvaise idée ] Cirer un manche en érable pour lui donner un look rétro ?

Citation : Over lunch I did my Tele neck (2000 model MIM, poly) with the brown shoe polish and it worked perfectly.

In fact, I didn't take a picture, but I have a 20-year-old Fender maple neck on another guitar and the 2000 model one tinted with brown shoe polish looks EXACTLY like the 20-year-old maple. I'm thrilled with the result.

FWIW, I also buffed the satin finish to higher-gloss with Turtle Wax clear coat polishing compound (done it a bunch on other guitars), to get more of the "vintage" look from my MIM Tele. Do this first. It just takes a few minutes, buff by hand, the result is just like a vintage high-gloss neck.
