Gretschified
@TV the Wired Turtle posted that the finish on his laquered Gretsch guitars felt quite sticky.
I had the chance to compare the "modern" laquer of Gretsch to the laquer used by Gibson.
Gibson`s is even more sticky and much softer. You could indent it with your thumbnail, easily.
So both surfaces are not ideal.
Strangely pre 80ies Gretsch or Gibson nitro finishes feel totally different. Maybe they use a different formular or there are substances that "fumed out" during time.
