[eastman]

Don't know where the word June came from in the title. Darn auto spell.

Just got my old beat up nickel plated back from bein refinished so I thought I'd share it w u guys .

 

[Poppa D]

It looks like new, well done.

 

[fright88]

Holy crap that looks great thanks for sharing!!

 

[rwechsler]

So slick! Who refinished it for you if you don't mind me asking?

 

[imeothanasis]

you exposed the aluminium body east or you re-nickel it?

 

[rwechsler]

Looks like exposed aluminum to me

 

[imeothanasis]

yes, me too rw. I dont think eastman re-nickel a mat finish

 

[rwechsler]

Looks good though. Are the brushed nickel GGTBs nickel plated aluminum as well? I might do the same to mine, looks great

 

[RippleInStillWater]

Are the etchings still legible?

 

[imeothanasis]

No, they are brass nickel plated rw

Looks good though. Are the brushed nickel GGTBs nickel plated aluminum as well? I might do the same to mine, looks great

The engravings were already badly faded, the body had a few very deep scratches that looked like they were from a pair of pliers.

The nickel playing was removed. Cuseguy did it for me.

 

[Lonely^Driver]

That is a neat looking GGTS you have there.

 

[pounder]

Sweet looking GG

 

[SkeetS]

Honestly?
I didn't like it but tastes differ from one to another...
I miss the engraving on it!

But still was a nice work.

 

[eastman]

Yeah I miss the engraving as well but it was very faint already. The previous owner had used a wrench on it as well to unscrew some parts and had torn up the nickel plating.
