Carpster61 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Hi peeps, Having received my long awaited 1959 VOS something has come to my attention, it is no problem but I am just wondering ...... I know that the VOS series are toned down and reliced to an extent, but does that include the screws ... ??? The heads of every visible screw have rust on and it is more pronounced in the slots of the biggest screws. I am just wondering if this is meant to be because of the 'relicing' procedure. It definately gives the guitar the aged feel and is fine if it is meant to be there or not. Anybody got the same rusty marks on theirs ... ?

renegade6 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Yes it is normal. I have an R7, a few R8s, and an R9 with VOS finish and they all have aged looking screws, some rusty looking as you described Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Farnsbarns Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 If someone posting on a thread bothers you, it may be time to seek professional help. Whatever gave you the impression I was bothered, old chap. I was just asking a question. I would say that the way you projected something that wasn't there in to my post and then commented bassed on that is very indicative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
