The LMOM replied to The LMOM's discussion Guitar Modifications? in the group Walden Guitars

"Yeah. I could have done a few more applications of the polish to get a higher gloss, but I was very happy with the level of shine it had so I stopped. To me it had a bit of a broken-in "vintage" look and I liked that. I'm…"
