Had some blindingly white volume/tone controls that I decided that I'd try to age and relic to put onto my relic'd Strat (they were considerably whiter than the pickup that you can see in the photos). Here's how they look now thanks to some careful coffee and mud application...







Much better

Good job!

They look suitably hygenic.

I feel the onset of tetanus nice work Jim!

Excellent job

Mate

You should have sent them to me
A week in my undies same result

Was just telling Jim via text, I once tried this and inadvertently threw the bloody lot in the bin... It was from my CS '69 Strat too... I put them in some stain of some sort then took them out and put them on a bit of newspaper to dry. Somehow they got swept up in a garage tidy and thrown out... Duh.

Ah nothing better than a well-stained knob...

(jb I'm surprised you left that one for me )

My youngest sister learned that trick young. She'd hang around home and pick off my mates at her leisure. Maximum result, minimum effort.
Worked well too; she's still married to my best mate
