I never could cope with the satin finishes, it's got to be glossy for me to like it. Anyway, happy NGD! Enjoy your Traditional man, I've always wanted one.
You can easily polish the satin finish into a high gloss finish with some elbow grease, or even use a buffer wheel. At least you are not paying an extra $1,000+ for a high gloss finish compared to a satin finish.![]()
But ... satin is so cool, it doesn't take as long to get old looking.
I just like the way they get shiny where I sweated on them.
Kinda like polishing without the effort.
You could call it easy aging, in reverse.
The only places the guit looks new is where you sweat all over it.
The rest looks old in comparison.
