    Oil vs. high polish

    Has anyone ever A-B switched a oiled Thumb (or any Wick) versus a high polish to hear a differnce the "sealed" finish makes (made from same woods). I love the shine of high polish but I think it will effect the sound and I never had the chance to play a high polish.

    If you ask for High Polish finish...

    Yep, if you ask for a High Polish stain finish on the body of a bolt-on instrument, and a matching headstock, will you get a high polish finished headstock, or do you have to ask for it ? As simple as it gets...
