banjorick Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 I'm going to purchase an electric guitar, and I've been lured to gold hardware (on an Epiphone Dot Deluxe). Will this stuff (like the pickups) tarnish? I'd rather not have to deal with a ton of maintenance on this thing if it can be helped. Thanks for your responses. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

anodyne Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 gold on gibsons doesn't stay gold long at all, and even moreso with the lower end hardware often slapped on epiphones. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
banjorick Posted March 17, 2007 Author Share Posted March 17, 2007 Thanks for your help. I'll steer clear of the gold until I hire my first guitar tech. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
