  • Tasteful Aging or Busted?

    Posted by Ben Schmaus Bench Zen on December 21, 2024 at 8:50 am

    Looking for thoughts from folks that know more about wood and aging than I do.

    Here’s a pine strat body (this one’s from MJT aged finishes) that looks like it has some cracks in addition to the expected finish checking, dents, dings, scrapes, etc.

    Is this legit aesthetic relic/aging or is it just kind of a broken body?

    Appears to be a body crack. Easy way to tell is to dribble naptha into it. If it disappears, it’s a crack.

    Definitely cracks. I followed up with MJT. They were super cool about it and are sending out a replacement body.
