Very cool finish. I'd never seen one of those either.

Did you buy it?

It needs amber or maybe even black knobs, those gold ones look...odd. ...and it needs reverse Zebras!

No , I did not buy it.
It’s still there as far as I know.
I like the paint but if I ever spent the money on a custom shop, it would have the custom head stock inlay.

It’s the black one, problem is.
I don’t think you can buy that color in nitro.
It would be available in a automotive finish but that would not be satisfactory.

Ohio Vally Nitro could mix you the colors.
The nitro clear coats on top are the most important part of a good paint job.

I should have made the original post more clear. I have been considering doing something to the appearance of the studio.
It is a tough decision because on one hand changing would probably decline any perceived value, on other hand I don’t plan on selling it and the finish is weathered a little.
My first thought was to just sand the top down and do a black dye, sand it back and clear it including a painted binding.
