weaponepsilon Posted January 17, 2006 Report Posted January 17, 2006 I wasn't sure exactly where to put this and I know this is a dumb question but... I have a LP neck that has a slight yellowing of the binding problem near the headstock. I assume that using thinner or something should correct this problem. Any ideas? Quote
Primal Posted January 17, 2006 Report Posted January 17, 2006 Its the way of life for white binding... Quote
Mattia Posted January 17, 2006 Report Posted January 17, 2006 Leave it alone. Guitars age. Binding yellows. Nitro finishes yellow, shrink, check and crack (they're checmically pretty unstable, after all). Learn to love the character it provides. Quote
Guitarfrenzy Posted January 17, 2006 Report Posted January 17, 2006 Nitro turns yellow over time, which isn't a bad thing. It actually gives you the classic vintage look that most are looking for in the first place. Like Mattia said, I'd leave it alone... Quote
erikbojerik Posted January 17, 2006 Report Posted January 17, 2006 The yellowing may be faster in that area if it is an area that gets a lot of hand action (e.g. sweat). Part of the vint-aging process. Quote
Mattia Posted January 17, 2006 Report Posted January 17, 2006 Hehehe...you said 'hand action'....hehehehe.... Quote
