Das Kochen in Kaffe oder Tee funktioniert tatsächlich!
Hier eine kleine Anleitung von
www.kinman.comDie Tips, die dort unter "the perfect guitar" zu finden sind, haben es in sich. Und Chris Kinman ist weiß Gott kein Voodoo-Priester. Er steht mit beiden Beinen in der Realität.
Ist leider nur für Strats und Tellies... no Gibson
Seine Pickups sind wirklich vom feinsten.
Tinting: No need to spend thousands of hours in smoke filled clubs to get that authentically aged look. Kinman's beautifully made Strat pickup cover is moulded in a special plastic that can be permanently tinted with water based dies such as Tea, Coffee, Curry, Henna hair dye etc. Some colours that can be made this way are .......
Mint (a light green tint seen on early 60's L Series Strat pickguards, made with Peppermint Tea)
Parchment (not too long in solution of instant coffee)
Aged White (similar to the New Fender colour) Same as for Cream but less time.
Cream (similar to Gibson P-90 cream covers, made with strong Instant coffee plus a bit of Red food dye)
Old Strat (a mixture of Mint and Cream)
You simply soak the White covers in the above (boiling hot) food solutions for two minutes or less. If stronger colour is desired then add more coffee/tea. If you make a mistake then reverse the process by soaking the cover in Laundry bleach and start over. Gruß
