Nik Huber: his take on varnish and paint

On this new Luthier Chronicle, I asked Nik Huber about varnish, finish and paint.

Subjects discussed

• Nitro-cellulose versus 2 component finish
• His take on the thickness of the finish
• Is-it possible to hear the difference between a nitro and a 2 component finish on a solid body?
• The development of new colours
• His source of inspiration for new ideas
• The story of the new metallic finish presented at the 2015 NAMM show
• The aging of the finish oh his first guitars

Until the next chronicle, keep on playing your guitar and check-out your local luthier.

Pierre.
