      @@michaelgallagher3640 For one, Nitrocellulose lacquer isn't "illegal". (The *solvent* , acetone, is in *only in California* , *only in large quantities* and *only very lately* -- they use an alternative, but either way that all evaporates off anyway.)
      The slab board has nothing to do with international sales or neck stability. That was just how they did it. The laminate board was to save money/materials.
      The necks don't "petrify". That's ridiculous. The guitar would be faulty and impossible to setup if that was the case.
