is it time for a re finish ?

i used to really like the butter scotch finish, in fact if i had an infinite budget i think that's what i would have gone for. but times change and i change and its time for a big change for the tele. i prefer the feel of a nitro cellulose finish ie what gibson do. i like the feel it feels softer no my hands less harsh. so nitro it is no idea on color i guess what ever i can get in a rattle can. id like a lake placid but that's a bit stratty. probably chose white or off white.

i assume that the tele already has a grain filler in it right now so after sanding off the polyester ill spray over unless its going to need a process that i haven't seen as yet. im sure you will hear more about this as i move on. of i could car paint it black as joe strummer did?
