Flake White Hue vs. Lead white oil paint comparison
I wanted to make a quick demo of how lead hues compare to titanium and zinc. There is no easy answer on what to do. Lead is toxic and expensive, but on the other hand, it lasts longest and looks the best. Zinc+titanium is cheapest and safest and looks nearly as good but zinc=delamination according to experts. My advice is to use whatever you like and whatever leads to more painting. Thanks for watching.

In this video, I review the Abilene stratocaster copy that I bought at a local pawn shop for $45. The demo starts at around 11:00. I am plugged into a Joyo Tubescreamer clone going into a Peavey Classic 30. Apologies for my crappy camerawork and audio.

    Can you tell me what the string spacing (E to E) is at the bridge?

    22 years ago, I was praying for an electric guitar and a few days later my friends surprised me with a black stratocaster copy by Abilene. It's my first guitar and has been with me halfway across the world and I played it in church for years. Still hung on to it.

    I just bought an Abilene super cheap...i like the thick glossy red color.... that was the selling point... just like yours it's in mint condition will probably swap out the pickups and bridge... may put a squire neck on it as well... with a few upgrades this will be a fun guitar...all stuff i have.... would like to have seen the tuners on guitar... its probably the same.....

    Thank you sir, very useful information. If I may, lighting could use some improvement but none the less, thank you for taking the time.

      Yes, the lighting could definitely be improved. Thanks for watching!

    Back in Cuba, I did a lot of zinc white my self, because you know is a communism and things are just not available so we have to do our own white with zinc oxide and linasa oil, just mixing it, and the one I use to do, it has the same consistency that that permalba white, so I would assume that permalba is done with poor quality lol or maybe is because the zinc, maybe is it has a lot of zinc in it is probably what it is Thanks for the demostration

    I tried the WN flake white hue, and as far as I could tell their attempt at making it more transparent like lead white was just adding way more linseed oil, I usually use a vertical glass pallet so it just slid down

    • @zbthunderwood
      @zbthunderwood 3 года назад

      Interesting. Mine was about the consistency of other W&N colors. Definitely not runny. Do you think yours was separated in the tube more than normal?

    Massive thanks for the demonstration. I can't find any reviews or comments about WN flake white hue, so thanks for the comparison. Any other comments about WN flake white hue's handling would be much appreciated.

    • @zbthunderwood
      @zbthunderwood 3 года назад

      No problem, glad it's helpful for you. It's hard to put into words, but I would describe the WN flake white hue as "medium" in terms of stiffness. Not quite as soft as M Graham, not as stiff as Williamsburg or Old Holland (the latter I admit I haven't personally used). Gamblin's flake white replacement is made from linseed oil and is noticably stiffer, but it is notorious for discoloring quickly into a tan, almost Naples yellow color very quickly. Check out Walcott Art's video on whites and you'll see what I mean. I'll probably just throw mine out. Anyway, hope that helps!

    My mom won one of these in a raffle over twenty years ago. She said she told me about it years ago but apparently I forgot she had it and never picked it up from her when she gifted it to me. Well I found it about a year ago still in the case so I took it. I guess she figured I would ask for it some day. To this day it still a hasn’t been played but it needs some cleaning up tho. Looking to bring it back to life so I’m searching for ways to fix her up.

    When I was in junior high, my parents got me the TS sunburst. It must've been 1994 or so... I had it for about 8 years and sold it to my best friend. I regretted it almost immediately! It was a great guitar. He's since passed away and I wonder what ever happened to it from time to time. I just searched it on a whim and here I am! Thank you for posting this.

      Thanks for sharing that. I sold my first ever guitar and still think about her, checking Craigslist every so often with no luck.
