So I ordered a neck and body recently. I'm a weirdo who likes glossy necks.
Only thing is, brand new gloss necks feel too slick to me. On my beloved Hagstrom Super Swede, I've played the guitar so much that the finish seems to have buffed out somewhat and doesn't feel super slick like my Classic Vibe Strat's neck does.
So I'm thinking about using a VERY fine abrasive pad, steel wool, emery cloth, or sandpaper (like several thousand grit) to buff it and make it a little less slick and more worn-in feeling. I'm just not sure what to buff it with. Any suggestions for material/grit etc. to avoid all those tiny white scratches in the finish?
I'm thinking extremely fine (around 3000 grit) sandpaper like you can get at an auto parts store. Am I crazy?
