Aged Finish

yes yes, he's right, and I was thinking that too, cause everyone is ALWAYs on the pluses of dying black and sanding back, etc. I was just simplifying it down cause i though you were a newbie cause you thought that was an "aged finish". As in like what fender does. So I didn't wanna confuse you. As for what PRS says about the "old" overcoat... I have NO clue... looks like a gloss finish to me...

It's been mentioned before that black stain is actually made from a blue base, and will have a green 'tint' or 'haze' to it when a yellowing laquer is applied. Wouldn't you be better off dying with a DARK brown and sanding back as a first step if you are looking for that type of finish? I wouldn't want ANY hint of green on a finish like that if were my guitar.....
