  • Cracked Mirror Finish

    I've been looking around at different finishes just for the hell of it, and I've come across the cracked mirror finish. I've got one picture of it, and it looks awsome. Does anyone else have any pics they could post of it? I'd appreciate any help on this. Doesen't matter which guitar it's on, it's all good.

    Thanks,

    Read all about it . There is one on ebay and some comments from owners.

      That's actually where I first saw the pic, but thank you. Just wondering if anyone else has their guitars in this finish too.

        I'm kinda wondering how durable that would be, if it's a real cracked mirror inlaid into the top? Could it take a beating like any other guitar? It would suck to end up accidentally adding more cracks to the pattern... =P

          <font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Glass is just a LEETLE BIT harder than a normal finish, and you know how hard it is to ding those. The problem with this kind of finish is that you have to cut each piece individually, then make sure all of the edges are filed down and not sharp. If you miss something you end up spewing half your audience with your blood. Which is kind of cool, but audiences don't seem to appreciate it. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

                  As for the cracked mirror thing, I've looked into it, and it seems if the person who does the work actually knows what he's doing, you shouldn't serrate your forearm too bad [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] . And anyway, it just looks cool, no matter what.
