Location: Northern NJ, USA		Further to my earlier post, what makes the Nitro lacquers so special? I've used MinWax high gloss varnish over the years on furniture I've made but never worked with wood on a guitar. Seems to me it's just the drying time. I'm wondering if my neck will need re-setup if the strings have been off for a week or so??? Thanx.

Location: Nashville TN.		Nitro lacquers are the traditional finnish on high end guitars. Its can checker or melt.
Vynal will distroy it.
Its a slow process to apply it.
Taylor & Ovation both use modern more durable finishes that are modern.

Finishes have to thin so the don't rob sound.
