Title: tuff neck ,power disc ,,,,,leave as is ,or carry on polishing
Post by: trasher on March 29, 2009, 07:49 PM

right peeps ,,,got this tuff neck ,,,,it was blue ,and it had been fitted back to front
so there was a gouge all the way around it ,from the crank nut

so i stripped the anno ,and started to sand it with an orbital sander ,,,im kinda liking the brushed alloy look

what do you reckon leave it or carry on rubbing down and polish
