Different grades of Gold question.
I'm presently re-plating some electric guitar parts gold (24k), something I'd already done a few years ago. Most of the parts still looked pretty good while others definitely needed a re-plate. I chose to purchase the new kit from the original supplier because I wanted the newly-plated parts to match the old parts that still looked good.
Question: Does each company have different grades of gold? The replated gold parts look great, but I recall the very original gold finish (from the guitar factory) looking more 'yellow'. If I order a gold kit from several diffrent companies, will I wind up with several different grades of gold?
Thanks!
Mike
ps. The guitar is almost done. I'll post some pix as soon as I put it all together.
