ibanezcollector Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 (edited) Hey all, my name is Brett and I do relic work, and never knew project guitar had a forum LOL.. I contributed a couple things in the early days back on Jemsite. Hey Ben Anyways just thought I would show off some of my work and join this forum.. Here is a few of my latest works, I know relic work can be a heated subject but I try my best to bring authenticity to my instruments alot of others seem to miss. Comments welcomed and now that I found the forum I will participate http://www.vintagedguitars.com/pictures/SB...ay/DSC_0001.JPG http://www.vintagedguitars.com/pictures/SB...ay/DSC_0006.JPG http://www.vintagedguitars.com/pictures/Te...st/DSC_0002.JPG http://www.vintagedguitars.com/pictures/Te...st/DSC_0005.JPG http://www.vintagedguitars.com/pictures/Hi...yP/DSC_0002.JPG Edited December 8, 2007 by Maiden69 One pic per post forum rule Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xanthus Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 I really like the look of the second Strat and the bass. Feel free to divulge any tips you've got! Last I checked, there wasn't a relicing tutorial on the main site... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihocky2 Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 Do you contribute on the Reranch forum. I swear I've seen some of that work over there. Either way very nicely done. The only thing I see is the bridge on the first blonde (maybe Mary Kay) strat looks new. Might be that you just can't see any relicing from that angle though. Once again, great work.

CrazyManAndy Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 Welcome to PG! Ibanezcollector does indeed frequent the ReRanch forum, ihocky2. I've already commented on your stuff at ReRanch, but it's worth saying it again. Great job on the relics! CMA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WezV Posted December 8, 2007 Report Share Posted December 8, 2007 wow!!! we definately ave some 9's and 10's on the relic scale, very impressive stuff. i really want to see some more subtle relics if its something you do....if not, no bother - what you have shown here is very impressive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Summer Posted December 8, 2007 Report Share Posted December 8, 2007 (edited) i have a question directed to anyone.... why are relics only on fender guitars? (well practically all are) I havent seen any gibson or prs relics ever. although i usually dislike relicing, these look so natural i originally thought they really were from the 60's! nice work, keep posting.

Google Gibson + Tom Murphy and you shall find.... PRS is not in the business of the relics, and I kinda respect that a lot (I'm not a relic concept supporter myself). That said, the Fenders shown here look incredibly authentic !!! Amazing job !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibanezcollector Posted December 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2007 I would do a Gibson if I didnt have to sell a kidney to buy one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verhoevenc Posted December 8, 2007 Report Share Posted December 8, 2007 I'll second the need for a relicing tutorial! Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maiden69 Posted December 8, 2007 Report Share Posted December 8, 2007 (edited) Very nice work, I edited your post because we have a 1 pic per post rule unless you are doing a tutorial! And please don't do like other people have done and post 10 posts back to back with 1 pic each! , if your work is good people will actually click on your links!

I think Fender started the cloneing thing ,too.....I am of the mind that if it is not the orignal I don't want it.A copy is just a copy.
